Wandora is a general purpose information extraction, management, and publishing application based on Topic Maps and Java Swing. Wandora has graphical user interface, layered presentation of knowledge, several data storage options, huge collection of data extraction, import and export options, embedded server, and open plug-in architecture. Wandora is a FOSS application with GNU GPL license.

Wandora suits well for rapid ontology construction and information mashups. Wandora is capable to extract and convert wide range of open data feeds to Topic Maps format (see image below). Beyond Topic Maps conversion this feature allows Wandora user to aggregate multidimensional information mashups where information from Flickr interleaves with information from GeoNames and YouTube, for example. Wandora's embedded HTTP server enables easy mashup publication. Addition to default HTML page service, Wandora user can easily set up a web service and publish Wandora content with CMSs such as Drupal and Joomla. Read more at documentation.
