Visualisation of data through the database of the 'NMVW' and the JavaScript library D3.

Concept - Datavisualisation of the collection of Japanese weapons from the NMVW Database

This app visualises all of the weapons of the Japanese collection of the database in a bubblechart. The app uses the JavaScript library D3 and the database of the "Nationaal Museum Van Wereldculturen" (NMVW).

Data

To get data from the NMVW database i had to make use of SPARQL. SPARQL (SPARQL Protocol And RDF Query Language) is a RDF query language that is used to get RDF-based data through queries.
