Graph Modeling Language export

Revision as of 10:22, 8 May 2008

Wandora is capable to export Topic Maps as Graph Modeling Language (GML) format. The export starts with File > Export > Export GML graph.... Exported graph may be visualized with Yed graph editor application for example.

Export details

• Each topic is exported as a graph node.
• Each binary association is converted to an edge between player nodes. Edge's label is association type.
• If association has more than two players, an extra intermediate node is created and each player is linked to the intermediate node with an edge.
• If association has only one (or none) player, it is not exported.
• Each occurrence is exported as a node and an edge between occurrence text and topic node.
• Subjects, scopes, association roles, and variant names are not exported.

Exported nodes and edges don't include location information.
