The OntoRail knowledge engine supports imports of ontologies in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_(syntax) RDF/Turtle format].
Where the source model is available in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML_Metadata_Interchange XMI format], a Python pre-processor has been developped to extract an ontology out of the XMI.

The general process of user-supplied ontologies is as follows:
# Fill-in the Ontology parameters
# Extract RDF statements
## Upload XMI or TTL file
## Extract RDF statements, generate TopLevel & OntoRail ''Glue''
# Upload Ontology description file
# Load ontology into the knowledge graph
## Load Source Statements into OntoRail temporary graph
## Move Statements from tmp_import graph into Ontology graph
# There is no step 5, you're done!

Note: The import of user-supplied ontologies is a first release of the functionality and certain functionalities may still require support from an OntoRail administrator.

AdminWiki: /* Establish a relation */

An essential goal of OntoRail is to facilitate the establishment of relations between concepts in the aggregated ontology in order to foster digital continuity between models. To serve that need, the following functionalities are supported:
* create a relation between two concepts,
* search / filter existing relations,
* edit / delete an existing relation.

== Establish a relation ==
OntoRail enables the establishment of relations between two concepts present in the aggregated ontology through a predicate chosen amongst a controlled vocabulary. This functionality calls on three individual windows to function:
* the main page of the OntoRail web application
* two [[Browse#Hierarchical view (Tree Browser)|Tree Browser windows]], i.e. one window per concept.

The relations creation workflow is as follows:
# selection of the concepts to be related in their respective sources through the Tree Browser
# selection of the predicate to apply to the proposed relation
# addition (optional) of a comment
# selection of the status of the proposed relation
# addition of the relation into OntoRail
Please note that adding relations is restricted to logged-in users to allow traceability.

[[File:OntoRail-Relate_CreateRelations01.png|1024px|Addition of a relation: selection of the concepts to be related (step 1)]]
[[File:OntoRail-Relate_CreateRelations02.png|1024px|Addition of a relation: selection of the relation predicate (step 2)]]
[[File:OntoRail-Relate_CreateRelations03.png|1024px|Addition of a relation: additional information on the relation and saving it (steps 3-5)]]

== Search / filter relations ==

Existing relations can be searched / filtered (for example to identify whether a given concept has already been ''studied'' before) and the search can be restricted to a subset of the source models for convenience.

[[File:OntoRail-Relate_FilterRelations.png|1024px|Filter relations created in OntoRail]]

== Edit / delete relations ==

An existing relation can be edited, for example to re-qualify the relation (i.e. the predicate) or to change its status (for example from ''Under Review'' to ''Accepted'').

AdminWiki: /* Hierarchical view (Tree Browser) */

The OntoRail knowledge engine supports multiple means to visualize, navigate and search ontologies that have been imported into its RDF knowledge graph.

== Global Search ==

The OntoRail knowledge engine supports the import of multiple ontologies into a RDF knowledge graph and each of those ontologies may be imported in multiple versions. To support searching through a potentially large set of concepts, OntoRail implements a Global Search functionality which allows to search across a subset or all ontologies that have been imported. It is acessible from the main panel.

[[File:OntoRail-Search_GlobalSearch_MainPanelLocation.png|1024px|Access to OntoRail Global Search from the Main Panel]]

Once invoked, the Global Search widget allows to:
* select (''filter'') the ontology or ontologies that will be the object of the search
* provide a search term

The results are displayed below, ordered by ontology. The search results are hyperlinked so that they may be consulted in the [[#Hierarchical view (Tree Browser)|Tree Browser]].

[[File:OntoRail-Search_GlobalSearch_GlobalSearchWindow.png|1024px|OntoRail Global Search window]]

== Hierarchical view (Tree Browser) ==

The Tree Browser provides a searchable hierarchical view over a source ontology and its concepts. It can be accessed as a consequence of using the [[#Global Search|Global Search]] or when invoked from an ontology subpanel on the main page of OntoRail.

[[File:OntoRail-Browse_TreeBrowser_MainPanelLocation.png|1024px|Access to the OntoRail Tree Browser for RailSystemModel from the Main Panel]]

It provides a rich, hyperlinked & unified browsing of source models with quick access to:
* the official documentation page of the model
* a tree view of the model packaging structure
* the entity high-level description (where retrievable)
* the entity properties
* the entity documentation page (where retrievable)
as well as search functionalities allowing to quickly navigate models that can be quite comprehensive.

[[File:OntoRail-Browse_TreeBrowser_TreeBrowserOverview.png|1024px|Overview of the OntoRail Tree Browser window]]

== Graph view ==
The graph view of the OntoRail knowledge engine is provided by the ''Visual Graph'' functionalities of the [https://graphdb.ontotext.com/ GraphDB Semantic Graph Database].

It provides a graph view of the relations between the concepts of an ontology (here, the RailSystemModel)...
[[File:OntoRail-Browse_GraphBrowser_RSM_example.png|1024px|Graph view of the RSM model]]
... but also between concepts of multiple ontologies (here, the concept of ''VehicleStop'').
[[File:OntoRail-Browse_GraphBrowser_VehicleStop_example.png|1024px|Graph view of the VehicleStop concept and relation between models]]

For details on how to explore the Graph view, please refer to the [https://graphdb.ontotext.com/documentation/free/quick-start-guide.html#explore-your-data-and-class-relationships GraphDB documentation].
