Create Classes, Properties, and Edges

  1. To add a Class, drag one in from the Input section of the Input tab.

  1. Once placed in the designer, name the class Person using the prefix gbo. Many additional RDFS and OWL constructs can be assigned to your class from here.

  1. To add a Literal, click and drag out a literal in the same way as a Class. The default DataType of xsd:string can be kept.

  1. To connect the Class and the Literal to create an Edge, draw a connection between the two nodes. The edge will be created which can then be provided with a name of hasFirstName. As with Classes, a number of ontological constructs can be set from here.

  1. The process of creating a property is exactly the same for both DataType properties (a property between a Class and a Literal) and an Object Property (a property between two Classes).
