To explore RDF elements and view which contents or users are linked with that. With just one click (or tap) over a node you can see appear the navigation panel that allows you to: • Explore/Reduce a node of the graph. • Focus the visualization over a node. • Open a specified content and view it's info. • Direct accessing to the info associated with an entity, attributes and their values. • Filtering relationships, inverting the filtering. • Save your linked open graph with your preferences and navigations and get their access via email, that you can share with your colleagues for reading and further browsing and change. A list of check buttons, one for each relation kind, to turn on/off the visualization of relations from the LOG. LOG tool is free of use for no profit organizations. You can embed the LOG tool in your web pages. DISIT smart city and OD projects 11
