Overview

Object Explorer is a search and analysis tool for answering questions about anything in the Ontology.

  • Users can easily find objects of interest by running queries ranging from simple keyword searches to comprehensive property filters, all from an intuitive point-and-click interface. From there, they can explore the resulting object sets using the exploration view, or view them as a table of results, or select a specific object to see its Object View.
  • Additionally, users can compare and contrast object sets, take bulk Actions (like writeback) on the object set, and open the object set in other compatible applications (such as Quiver), or export them. Users can also save their Explorations, and revisit them at any time to see the latest results.
  • The exploration view is a set of preset and configurable visualizations (such as charts or maps) that the user can further leverage to drill-down into specific subsets of Objects.
  • Object Explorer requires minimal configuration, and is geared towards less technical users.
