The present invention relates to a method and system for recognizing a situation by using an ontology modeling technique for intelligently managing a food storeroom, and more particularly, to a system and method for monitoring the status of food that apply sensing information, storeroom operation related information, food storage related information, and food attribute related information to an inferring rule to recognize whether food kept in a storeroom has gone bad and to find out the freshness grade and the period over which freshness is maintained. An aspect of the method of monitoring the status of food according to the present invention includes: the step of obtaining sensing information in which sensing information is obtained from sensors located in a food storeroom the step of obtaining food storage related information in which food storage related information is obtained from a DB the step of obtaining storeroom operation related information in which storeroom operation related information is obtained and the step of outputting the status of food in which the sensing information, the food storage related information, and the storeroom operation related information are applied to a pre-made inferring rule to infer the situation of a food storeroom in order to recognize whether each stored food has left and in order to find the freshness grade and the period over which freshness is maintained.Cette invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant de reconnaître une situation à laide dune technique de modélisation dontologies pour la gestion intelligente dun entrepôt de denrées alimentaires, et plus particulièrement, un procédé et un système pour surveiller létat de denrées alimentaires, ledit procédé et système appliquant des informations de détection, des informations relatives au fonctionnement de lentrepôt, des informations relatives à la conservation des denrées alimentaires, et des informations relatives à des attributs de denrées alimentaires à u
