Functional Description

This plugin adds a new visualization paradigm to the NeOn toolkit. The plugin provides to the user a navigation driven by the relations contained in the classes of the ontology. The motivation for this type of navigation is the need of the pharmaceutical invoicing use case to present to the end users a complex ontology like the invoice reference ontology described in D8.3.1. The goal of the plugin is to simplify the elements that a user has to visualize in order to annotate an invoice into a complex ontology.

In this plugin we abstract the visualization of ontologies part from the annotation and invoice visualization parts. The plugin visualizes OWL ontologies and the user has to indicate to the plugin which is the starting class s/he wants to visualize. Once this class is selected the visualization starts. The user is able to view the domain class of the relation and its range class. The user can navigate until there is no other relation in the last class visualized. The user is also able to view the properties of each class but s/he is not able to edit them.

User Documentation

The user only needs to right click one class in the tree visualization of the ontology and select the “Relation Visualization” option.
