xls2rdf

Create RDF data by editing formatted Excel spreadsheets. We use this at Sparna to populate knowledge graphs with RDF instances, edit SKOS vocabularies, SHACL specifications, even OWL ontologies.

Excel file structure

Complete documentation of the expected Excel sheets format can be found at https://xls2rdf.sparna.fr/rest/doc.html.

Implementations

xls2rdf REST API

The Excel to RDF conversion service is accessible as an REST at http://xls2rdf.sparna.fr/rest/convert. It can work with online publicly accessible Google spreadsheets.

An upload form where you can upload your Excel file and download the result of the conversion is accessible in the SKOS Play application (for which this converter was historically designed) at https://skos-play.sparna.fr/play/convert

xls2rdf on the command-line

You can run the conversion from the command-line. See https://github.com/sparna-git/xls2rdf/wiki/Command-line-Excel-to-RDF-conversion
