owlview

OWL Viewer

Present a simple listing of the classes and properties an OWL ontology, specification-style.

Inspired by LODE, the goals of owlview are:

• Simple (X)HTML 5 results that can be saved and included elsewhere
  • Light-weight Bootstrap 3 styling
• Predictable and Cool URIs for ontology/term
• Load from ontology URL or uploaded file(s)
• Markdown support

The project is still at an early, experimental stage.

TODO

• Menu overlay of Table of Content
• Better navigation of large ontologies like schema.org
• Alternative view with page per property
• Nicer rendering of annotations
• Auto-detect Markdown vs HTML? Optional?
• Options - read from OWL?
• Content-negotation and download button for different formats (RDF/XML, Turtle, JSON-LD, etc)
• Indentation of HTML source?
• Option to not publically list an ontology loaded from URI
• "Follow your nose"-loading of undefined annotation properties and superclasses
• Loading directly from an ontology term, e.g. http://owl.s11.no/view/term/http://purl.org/pav/createdOn
• respec.js support

Live example

There should be an instance of owlview running at http://owl.s11.no/view/ - contact @soilandreyes or create a Github issue if you have any problems.

Examples:

• http://owl.s11.no/view/ont/http://purl.org/pav/
• http://owl.s11.no/view/ont/http://purl.org/dc/terms/#http://purl.org/dc/terms/format
• http://owl.s11.no/view/ont/http://www.w3.org/ns/prov-o#
