(Apologies for cross-posting) Dear all: In the past year, we released a lot of tools in the context of the GoodRelations vocabulary (http://purl.org/goodrelations/) that may be of wider interest. All tools are available on-line and most are also released as sourcecode under LPGL. 1. Generic Tools a) RDF2DataRSS: =============== Yahoo accepts RDF only as either RDFa embedded into existing Web pages or via their proprietary DataRSS feed format. The RDF2DataRSS tool turns any RDF data submitted as RDF/XML or Turtle/N3 into such Yahoo feeds and can be used to submit RDF/XML into Yahoo's SearchMonkey index. http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/tools/rdf2datarss/ b) RDF2RDFa converter: ====================== This tool creates handy snippets of invisible RDFa from RDF/XML content such that the RDF can be pasted easily into any existing page without hard-wiring it with the HTML page mark-up. http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/tools/rdf2rdfa/ 2. Tools for Creating GoodRelations Data a) Google Product Feed Converter: ================================= Many shops are already exposing their product and price information in one of the proprietary Google feed formats (RSS 1.0, 2.0 / CSV-based). With our tool, you can generate GoodRelations RDF/XML data from that data. That can be particularly interesting for adding RDF export to existing shops easily. http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/tools/google-product-feed-converter/ b) BMEcat2GoodRelations converter: ================================== BMEcat is a popular XML Schema Definition (and DTD) for exchanging catalog data between enterprises in B2B settings. Many PIM, shop, and ERP software packages can create BMEcat XML documents. This tool transforms a BMEcat catalog into a GoodRelations-variant in RDF/XML. It can reuse / preserve more features than any other tool. http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/tools/bmecat2goodrelations/ By the way, a free tool for creating BMEcat catalogs is at http://www.eclass.de/user/software/democat_2_0.zip (in German only, unfortunately). c) GoodRelations Annotator: =========================== A straightforward form-based Web application that creates a detailed company / business profile in RDFa and RDF/XML. http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/tools/goodrelations-annotator/ d) Plug-ins / Extensions for Shop Software: =========================================== * osCommerce Shop Software: http://code.google.com/p/goodrelations-for-oscommerce/ * Joomla/Virtuemart CMS/Shop combo: http://code.google.com/p/goodrelations-for-joomla/ * Magento shop software: Contact Uwe Stoll, http://www.semantium.de/ (demo shop at http://www.la-mousson.de/) 3. GoodRelations-compliant Domain Ontologies for Vertical Industries a) ClassOWL 5.1.4 Products and Services Ontology ================================================ * OWL or HTML: http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/ontologies/eclass/5.1.4/ (Warning: The file is very large - 38.3 MB for RDF/XML and 71.8 MB for HTML): * ZIP: OWL+HTML: http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/ontologies/eclass/5.1.4/eclass_514en.zip (eClassOWL 5.1.4 ontology and documentation, compressed - OWL + HTML, zip, 4.7 MB): b) freeClassOWL - Ontology of Construction and Building Materials ================================================================= * http://www.freeclass.eu/freeclass_v1 (add .html / .owl if content negotiation should fail) c) Consumer Electronics Ontology (CEO) ====================================== * http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/ontologies/consumerelectronics/v1 (add .html / .owl if content negotiation should fail) 3. Applications for Inspecting and Consuming GoodRelations Data a) iGoogr: "Imagine Google was using the GoodRelations vocabulary for e-commerce" ================================================================================= A quick demo of how Google search results could be improved by GoodRelations meta-data; also useful for inspecting your own page, because it fetches and parses RDFa in real-time. http://igoogr.appspot.com/ b) GoodRelations Statistics =========================== A tool that collects and exposes detailed data on the popularity of GoodRelations elements in the wild (with RDFa export of the stats!). http://goodrelations-stats.appspot.com/ c) GoodRelations Validator (alpha) ================================== A tool that spots semantic inconsistencies in GoodRelations data beyond the axioms of the ontology. http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/tools/goodrelations-validator/ Much more is on our agenda for 2010, so please stay tuned by * bookmarking http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/GoodRelations and * subscribing to http://ebusiness-unibw.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/goodrelations .
