RDFStore

RDFStore[{t1,t2,…}]

represents an RDF graph with triples ti.

RDFStore[{t1,t2,…},name1{s11,s12,…},…]

represents an RDF dataset with default graph consisting of the triples ti and named graphs consisting of the triples sij with names namei.

Details and Options

  • RDF stands for Resource Description Framework.
  • Resources are identified by IRIs.
  • Statements about resources are made with triples RDFTriple[subj, pred, obj] where subj is the subject to be described, pred is the predicate and obj is the value.
  • Subjects, predicates and objects are typically IRIs or blank nodes. Objects can also be literals like strings, numbers and Booleans.
  • When querying an RDF dataset using SPARQLSelect[pattern] then pattern is matched against the default graph. SPARQLSelect[SPARQLGraph[name,pattern]] can be used to match pattern against the graph named name.
