JTOWL: A JSON to OWL Converto

JSON is a popular web data interchange format in Internet, especially for Social Network applications. To process these current JSON data sets using Semantic Web technologies, we should firstly convert them into well-defined semantic description languages, such as OWL. In this paper, we propose a method, which can automatically convert related JSON data sets into OWL ontology. This method can extend data semantics using semantic reasoning and combine multiple related resources into a unique ontology. The constructed semantic data contains concepts, properties, constrains and values which are implied in JSON object. We develop the method as a JSON to OWL convertor JTOWL that can process web data resources and create semantic data effectively.
