Subj3ct.com is an web service providing subject identifiers. Subject identifiers play an important role in Topic Maps and ontologies in general to identify concepts and ideas. Subj3ct.com is a work of Networked Planet, a British company developing Topic Maps applications. Wandora's Subj3ct record extractor reads open api feeds and converts results to Topic Maps format. Wandora's Subj3ct record extractor can be used to name and describe subject identifiers for example. As Subj3ct stores also provenances of subject identifiers, user can trace the subject author.
Wandora's Subj3ct record extractor starts with menu option File > Extract > Subjects > Subj3ct record extractor.... Option opens a dialog (See image below) where Wandora user may choose the kind of extraction. Available choices are
- Get subject identity record by subject identifier
- Search for subject identity records by web resource
- Search for subject identity records by URI
- Search for subject identity records by text query
- Make an explicit api feed XML request
Notice choices reflect the structure of Subj3ct feed api. All but last choice maps to api request. To ease extraction, Wandora user may copy subject identifiers from Wandora's topic selection to the extractor. Subject identifier is picked with Context to... buttons.
After successful extraction, Wandora contains several type topics and extracted subjects. For example, searching instance results five different Subj3ct topics (See image below). Each subject record carries subject's link in service (recordlink), trust, description, and name. Optionally subject record may contain references to equivalent and representational subjects. Wandra user should note that all subject record data represents a personal view of record author.
