问题
I want to find some great tools or styles to visualize my RDF data so that it can give viewers a shock when they access the RDF data.
The problem is that the visualization tools I get now can just generate some simple styles (node,edge...) like below:
They look ugly because edges take up too many spaces and nodes are too small.I don't think this kind of graphs can give viewers any different experiences from viewing sheets or tables directly.
I want to know if there are any new visualization tools or just styles that can give users really different experiences so that they can feel how invaluable linked data are...
Any suggestions or recommendations?
回答1:
By far the best RDF linked open data visualization tool that I've come across is LodLive: http://en.lodlive.it/
It knows of numerous SPARQL endpoints, including DBpedia.
I've previously implemented a web based RDF authoring tool that hooks into it: https://github.com/robstewart57/discover-me-semantically .

i am looking for pretty much the same thing. lots of googling, and reading of phd articles, lead me to a few possibilities.
- Javascript InfoVis Toolkit
- prefuse
definitely would be interested in whatever others may have found, or are using.

I'm looking for the same thing. All I can find after hours of searching are just plain circles and node connected by dull lines. I came however upon this tool which seems to be rather advanced in displaying RDF information. I haven't looked deep into it yet, but it looks promising:
