I'm looking for a tool that will render a RDF graph in a reasonably useful graphic format. The primary purpose of the graphic format being inclusion into a PowerPoint slide or printing on a large plotter for management review.
I am currently using TopBraid Composer which does a reasonably well at visualizing a single entity but doesn't seem to have a clear way of visualizing the entire graph (as a whole).
Anyone know of any good solutions to this problem?
Gephi was already mentioned, but I'll incode screenshots and a short description here.
Gephi can not just visualize graphs but also supports analyzing, layouting and further importing and exporting. There is a Semantic Web Import Extension that allows you to directly query (via SPARQL) or import RDF data. https://wiki.gephi.org/index.php/SemanticWebImport (You can install it directly within the program at Plugins.
There's a JavaScript Graph Visualisation Library which worked quiet nice for me: http://sigmajs.org/ It works well together with Gephi since you can Export your graph from there and import the file into SigmaJS. That way you can export your graph to an interactive web site. Example: http://fannon.de/p/smw/vis/George_Orwell_Platz_30.html
An important mention would be D3.js which has already dozends of force graph examples. But it doesn't support RDF directly, so the data has to be converted first.
A nice one is this: http://nylen.tv/d3-process-map/graph.php?dataset=les-mis
RDF Gravity is an RDF visualisation tool.
Here's a screenshot:
