Visual Browser is a Java application for visualizing RDF data using the Jena framework. The resultant graphs are animated and permit users to expand and hide nodes and switch the view of edges, allowing them to focus on a small part of the network. The visualization engine is derived from TouchGraph LLC and follows the navigation approach of WebOFDAV, a system based on the concept of exploratory navigation to reduce chances of getting “lost in hyperspace” situation.
