RDF Mapping Service

This is the home page for a service that allows instances in RDF in one ontology to be dynamically translated to a representation in another ontology.

It is highly experimental, limited in functionality and subject to change without notice.

The service uses an RDF description of the relationships between the two ontologies (provided by the Mapping URI) to process the required RDF which is obtained by resolving the Resource URI).

In some instances the RDF for the mapping service also specifies bespoke code on the server to perform more complex mappings.

Resource URI:
Mapping URI:
Output:

mapping-uri
The URI of the mapping to apply to the resource.
For example: http://rdf.ecs.soton.ac.uk/ontology/mapping/foaf
or http://www.rkbexplorer.com/maps/kisti/akt
resource-uri
The resource URI to apply the mapping to.
For example: http://id.ecs.soton.ac.uk/person/21
or http://kisti.rkbexplorer.com/id/PER_00000000000000054414
output (default: RDF)
The default is to return the list in RDF format. An HTML output is also available.

Running from a URI

It is quite likely that you will want this service to be run from a script. This can be done by setting the path. It should look like this 

http://www.rkbexplorer.com/mapping/?map=<mapping-uri>&resource=<resource-uri>[&<output>]

Other Notes

If you're having trouble just use the form to generate the correct query and copy it to where you need it.
