OWLSharp

Features

  • OWLSharp is built atop RDFSharp with the goal of providing ontology expressivity for:

  • Creating OWL2 ontologies (classes, restrictions, properties, individuals, assertions, annotations, ...)

  • Exporting them using standard OWL2 formats (OWL2/Xml)

  • Validating and Reasoning through extensible sets of intelligent RDFS/OWL-DL/OWL2 semantic rules

In addition to the core ontology features, it integrates a set of extensions providing expressivity for:

  • Creating reasoners building business-logic inference rules in a fluent and natural way (SWRL)
    -   "infers complex relations between classes
    
    and between properties (driven by feature- parity with Pellet, HermiT and Fact++"
  • Creating schemes describing, documenting and organizing vocabularies of concepts (SKOS)
  • Modeling and relating features having a spatiotemporal representation (GeoSPARQL, OWL-TIME)
