ztm.navigator – Topic Maps engine

Platforms: Unix, Windows, Mac OS X, Webkit, Mozilla, IE, Opera

ZTM Navigator lets users inspect a topic map. It borrows much from Ontopia’s Omnigator but has a slightly different design.

There are three main pages. Their appearance varies somewhat depending on what you are viewing and the state of what is being viewed.

The first page is the topic map itself. It lists some meta data and shows several indexes of key topics. From this page you can find links to individual topics.

The second kind of page is the topic page. Each topic has a page listing all its properties.

The third and final page is the scope which lists all properties defined in that scope.
