Knowledge Graph Viewer component

Use the Knowledge Graph Viewer component to render knowledge-graph style interactive diagrams for visualizing related data entities.

This powerful UI component can visualize data in the style of knowledge graphs which show entities and the relationships between them. You can interact with these graphs on a canvas, and can easily edit nodes and the relationships between them. These data models are used for creating digital twins.

Supported functions#

The Knowledge Graph Viewer component supports a range of functions depending on the data model, including:

  • The ability to build your own customized Knowledge Graph Viewer app to display data models for digital twins.
  • Importing, viewing and editing ontologies
  • Creating and viewing knowledge graph queries

IafKgraphUI#

The Knowledge Graph Viewer is built using the IafKgraphUI component which is a React component which offers endpoints to support all of the graph interactions. This component allows you to create your own custom Knowledge Graph Viewer by utilizing the components and context controllers from the IafKgraphUI library.

Note: For more information on using the IafKgraphUI component refer to the IafKGraphUI component page in the APIs section.
