Abstract

This paper presents a visualisation of the ASN and ontologies using AutoCAD. The geometric coordinates of nodes are based on the semantic distances. The whole semantic network or some selected parts are visualised on the screen, similar to a cartographic ”map”. Per mouse click on some node, an application may be opened, which allows reading and modifying the attributes of the corresponding objects.
