The RDF Transform Wiki!

Where you can find "the juice!"

RDF Transform is a RDF data transformer with advanced features such as an exportable template to use with other project, extensive RDF Export formats, universal controls across all nodes and properties, and enhanced export buffering.

Resizable dialogs with scrolling panels are a nice feature too!

This project uses a graphical user interface (GUI) for transforming OpenRefine project data to RDF-based formats. The transform maps the data with a template graph designed using the GUI.

RDF Transform is based on the venerable "RDF Extension" (grefine-rdf-extension). However, it has been thoroughly rewritten to incorporate the newer Java and JavaScript technologies, techniques, and processing enhancements.

NOTE: The latest releases (2.2.2 and above) only works with OpenRefine 3.6 or better due to upgraded Apache Jena library features that are not backward compatible. The features are related to the RIOT RDFFormat values used to export RDF data. All used RDFFormat values must be present during initialization of the Exporters. Otherwise, the RDF Transform initialization will fail and the server-side system will not properly start. Checks are processed in an attempt to report success or failure.
