About X3D visualization of ontologies :

A different approach that styling classes : load owl, use O-SNAP wizard
tool , export X3D

We have done a (smallish) industrial e-design ontology...

paper:
Radics, P. J., Polys, N. F., Neuman, S. P., & Lund, W. H. (2015, February).
OSNAP! Introducing the open semantic network analysis platform. In
*Visualization
and Data Analysis 2015* (Vol. 9397, p. 939707). International Society for
Optics and Photonics.

Project website w/ example X3D results of OWL mapping :

This Java code needs to be updated to Java 8 :

>> Work on X3DJSAIL continues to minimize need for authors to include

>> Of note is that when an author defines a new node in ExternProtoDeclare,
>> this appears to be the only case in X3D where direct validation of strong
>> typing in the scene graph is not possible.  Correctness can only be checked
>> when the external prototype is loaded.
>>
>> We are considering a recommendation that ExternProtoDeclare information
>> include node type as part of X3Dv4.  This has the potential to improve X3D
>> Quality Assurance (QA) even further.  Initial discussion welcome.
