Solar System Ontology (Turtle Format)

Project Overview

This project presents a Solar System Ontology implemented using Turtle format for knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR). The ontology models planets, moons, and their relationships, enabling interactive data visualization and semantic querying.

Features

• Ontology Design: Represents planets, their properties, and relationships (e.g., moons, distances, orbits).
• Interactive Graphs: Displays planet data interactively using GraphDB.
• Semantic Reasoning: Supports logical inferences and data querying through linked data models.
• Collaboration: Enables team-based modeling where each member contributed to specific planetary data.

Technologies Used

• Languages: RDF, OWL, Turtle
• Tools: GraphDB
• Frameworks: Semantic Web Technologies

Installation

1. Install GraphDB: Download GraphDB for visualization and querying.
2. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Alikhizar142/Solar-System-Ontology.git

Usage

1. Load the ontology into GraphDB for visualization and SPARQL queries.
2. Explore relationships and properties using GraphDB’s reasoning tools.

Example Query

Find all moons orbiting Jupiter:

PREFIX : <http://example.org/solarsystem#>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>

PREFIX xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#>
SELECT ?moonName 
WHERE {
  ?moon a :satellite ;
        :hasSatellite :Jupiter ;
        rdfs:label ?moonName .
}

}
