Hi all,

  I need to import my mapping file to topBraid. Nevertheless, there is no "owl:class" in my rdf mapping file but only "rdf:resources" :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Alignment>
<xml>yes</xml>
<level>0</level>
<type>??</type>
<map>
<Cell>
<entity1 rdf:resource="http://ontologies/onto1/e1"/>
<entity2 rdf:resource="http://ontologies/onto1/e2/>
<measure rdf:datatype="xsd:float">0.5</measure>
<relation>=</relation>
</Cell>
</map>

...

What I want is when I load this ontology into tbc/edg, I can have an interface (asset) such as we have in crosswalk : 

e1 | e2 | measure | relation
e1 | e3 | measure | relation
e1 | e4 | measure | relation
...

How I can create or customize ontology asset to have such visualizations whithin edg please.

I know, that we can use tbc composer to create new asset/theme but is there any documentation or tutorial to do this please ?

Thanks for your help.

There’s a link to an old getting started guide and a few videos on this page:


Cheers,

But how I can customize or create a new asset for this kind of mapping file (EDOAL), it's a know format used to express mapping (exact, broader, narrower) between ontologies, but since it not include owl class I can't displayed it on my edge?

Tools like TopBraid Composer and EDG require class/SHACL shape definitions to drive the user interface. It is otherwise impossible to know which properties are legal for an instance, what values they have etc.

To have any “data” in EDG there must be an ontology/shapes providing the data model. The EDG UI is model-driven.

In your example, there is clearly a class called “Alignment” and one called “Cell”, each with properties. Searching for EDOAL finds a page 


that says there is a dereferencable vocabulary available from which it seems you could start. Maybe someone else has already made “OWL” of this? If not, then I imagine you’ll just have to spend the time doing it yourself.

Cheers,
David
