SemanticWorks Semantic Web tool - Visual RDF and OWL editor

Semantic Web tool

Altova SemanticWorks® 2008 is the ground-breaking visual RDF and OWL editor for the Semantic Web. Graphically design RDF instance documents, RDFS vocabularies, and OWL ontologies, then output them in either RDF/XML or N-Triples formats. SemanticWorks makes the job easy with tabs for instances, properties, classes, etc., context-sensitive entry helpers, automatic format checking, and more.

Following in its tradition of supplying developers with easy-to-use, visual development tools, Altova created the SemanticWorks Semantic Web tool to help our customers learn and work with the new Semantic Web technologies in an intuitive way. As you are working, you can switch from the graphical design view to the text view to see the corresponding, auto-generated RDF / XML or N-Triples code, and you can export your file from RDF / XML to N-triples or vice versa at any time. And, because the code is auto-generated based on your design, you can focus on the logic and semantics of your design instead of getting mired in writing complex code. SemanticWorks® 2008 features:

Graphical RDF editor	Converting between RDF/XML an N-Triples
Graphical RDFS editor	Details window and entry helpers
Graphical OWL editor	Printing RDF/OWL diagrams
Support for OWL Lite, OWL Full & OWL DL dialects	Tabs for organizing instances, properties, classes, etc.

User Opinions

"Commercial-grade, general purpose RDF / OWL editing tools are key to wider scale Semantic Web deployment in industry. Altova SemanticWorks is an important new tool for developers building the Semantic Web today."

Eric Miller, Semantic Web Activity Lead for the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)

"Altova's SemanticWorks [OWL editor] continues the rich heritage of the XMLSpy family of tools by providing excellent OWL-compliant commercial-strength ontology editing capabilities. Graphical editing features help make OWL's cumbersome syntax transparent. Syntactic and semantic checking help ensure that quality ontology and instance datafiles are available for applications."

- Lee W. Lacy, author of OWL: Representing Information Using the Web Ontology Language
