Very good, I support this. I would also suggest to create a mkdocs page akin to the api |
Hi @gxclark thanks for the issue. This is something we always had in mind but also always struggled with because:
We have for instance a detailed view of the ontology here: https://onerecord.iata.org/ns/cargo/index-en.html This is automatically updated with the ontology and in my opinion is much more usable than what others can propose (e.g. https://vocabulary.uncefact.org/classes from UNCEFACT). I am not against maintaining a classical data model view but till today I'm still struggling to find a proper, collaborative, simple as possible tool. With regards to @NiclasScheiber comment above, let's assess what can be created as documentation indeed. |
Hello @lambertciata @NiclasScheiber , |
Hello! We are also making progress on our side. We had first identified dbdiagram (https://dbdiagram.io/) and we are focusing on:
We will share a MVP in the next couple of weeks to get feedback. |
Hi, As promised, the visualizer we've been working on is accessible here: https://aloccid-iata.github.io/ontology_visualizer/ It is an unofficial version that is not yet on IATA's repository and we are open to any feedback to make it better. There are 2 views: |
This is fantastic, thanks @lambertciata ! I've had no chance to experiment with RDF. |
This enables a way to visualize the data model as tables, columns and keys ... it is not quite as useful as a standard relational data model (for example, no definitions), but it is better than the older PDF. |
Well, we do have the definitions, we added a feature when you hold shift key and go over a property the description is shown :) |
While the main modeling activity is using OWL, the primary published data model does not seem to be in a standardized format, such as ... IDEF1X, Martin/ER/IE, UML ...

A while back, ~2020, I "reverse-engineered" ... (mostly manual) the PDF and XLSX files into an ER diagram in Oracle Data Modeler, see image below. This is now out of date, but is there a way to be able to produce this type of improved artifact as part of the standard model development process?
