# RDFSharp.Semantics [![NuGet Badge](https://buildstats.info/nuget/RDFSharp.Semantics)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/RDFSharp.Semantics)

RDFSharp.Semantics has a modular API made up of four layers: 

<ul>
    <li><b>RDFSharp.Semantics</b></li> 
    <ul>
        <li>Create and manage <i>OWL-DL ontologies</i> (classes, restrictions, properties, facts, assertions, annotations, ...)</li>
        <li>Exchange them using standard <i>RDF formats</i> (N-Triples, TriX, Turtle, RDF/Xml)</li>
    </ul>
</ul>
<ul>
    <li><b>RDFSharp.Semantics.Validator</b></li> 
    <ul>
        <li>Validate <i>T-BOX</i> and <i>A-BOX</i> of ontologies against a predefined set of <i>RDFS/OWL-DL</i> rules</li>
        <li>Analyze and resolve reported modeling errors and semantic violations</li>
    </ul>
</ul>
<ul>
    <li><b>RDFSharp.Semantics.Reasoner</b></li> 
    <ul>
        <li>Create <i>OWL-DL reasoners</i> with a both custom and predefined set of <i>RDFS/OWL-DL</i> rules</li>
        <li>Materialize semantic inferences and build detailed reasoning reports</li>
    </ul>
</ul>
<ul>
    <li><b>RDFSharp.Semantics.LinkedData</b></li> 
    <ul>
        <li>Ready to use <i>OWL-DL</i> implementation of common <i>Linked Data</i> ontologies (DC, FOAF, GEO, SIOC, SKOS)</li>
        <li>Build <i>SKOS/SKOS-XL</i> taxonomies with a friendly, powerful and complete .NET API</li>
    </ul>
</ul>
