Abstract

The techniques of information visualization have been initially applied to the Semantic Web to facilitate the presentation of data semantics. Currently, the Semantic Web visualization interfaces are separately based on two distinctive frameworks, RDF and Topic Maps. Since the visualization interfaces based on each framework only present a partial view of Semantic Web, an integration mechanism is needed to demonstrate them together for the panorama of Semantic Web. In this paper, we present an integrated Semantic Web interactive visualization environment (ISWIVE) to incorporate the topic features from Topic Maps into RDF. Both the detailed resource descriptions and the overall topic relationship can be clearly visualized in ISWIVE. Besides, an interactive local viewer and visual query interface facilitate browsing and searching over the Semantic Web resources.
