An overview of the TopBraid Suite products and capabilities of the TBS 3.0 release are given in the Spring 2009 Webinar series.  Follow links to the recordings on this page: 2009 Webinar Series

Getting Started with TopBraid Composer

Walks through the basic steps after Composer has been installed. In this demo we create a new project with an OWL file, then we create classes, properties and instances and show how to access visualization and source code. View

Geography and Mapping Support

This video demonstrates how to access geospatial information with Composer. We assign geographical coordinates to resources from a map and then perform some types of queries to find resources with specific logical characteristics. View

Spreadsheet Import (11/06/2007)

This video shows how to use TopBraid's spreadsheet importer to lift tabular data into an OWL ontology. View

Importing arbitrary XML files (11/10/2007)

This screencam demo shows how to import an XML file into TopBraid Composer (Maestro Edition), runs a SPARQL query over the XML data and performs other transformations. Finally, an HTML file is imported to OWL. Note that this video still uses the term xmap for what we now call Semantic XML. View

Create Reports and Charts with BIRT (11/12/2007)

This short video shows how to create a pie chart diagram from data stored in an ontology. This uses the BIRT report generator feature of TopBraid Composer's Maestro Edition. View

Creating a SPARQLMotion Script (03/01/2008)

This 5-minute video demonstrates how to create a SPARQLMotion script with TopBraid Composer Maestro Edition. We start by importing a news feed and then convert the resulting RDF triples into a spreadsheet file. While doing so, we also explain the graph editing capabilities. View

Information Integration Intelligence with Semantic Technology

Presentation about TopBraid on the Ontolog Forum, January 2008 (including slides and audio recording) View

Linking with DBpedia (04/14/2008)

This short video demonstrates how to link a domain model with corresponding DBpedia pages. This feature can be used to link existing ontologies and instances with other Semantic Web vocabularies. View

Mac users who experience problems viewing wmv files, could try tools such as flip4mac.
