An ontology is most often defined in these words An ontology is an explicit specification of a conceptualisation Gruber, 1993 . In this chapter, the functionality and capabilities of GODE are described, and some preliminary parts of what the Graphical User Interface GUI will look like are included.

Visualization Techniques
Many visualization techniques and metaphors are currently available to represent complex data, in particular textual interfaces, graphs, trees, and maps. Protege is a textual editor and browser for knowledge models, as described by Noy et al. 2001 . It maybe used for Topic Maps, RDF graphs, and ontologies. An example of ontology visualization with Protege is given in Figure 4.3. This tool presents a hierarchy of terms multiple inheritance is possible in this case terms appear several times in...
