Faceted Browsing of Semantic Graphs

Pelorus is a faceted navigation tool for browsing, searching, and discovering information in complex and large semantic graphs. Featuring an easy-to-learn interface, Pelorus allows users to browse RDF data in a powerful and simple way without knowing anything about the underlying technology.

Pelorus has been used in production in various different domains over the years and now will be available as an open-source library. In this talk we will describe the basic features of Pelorus and show a brief demo.
