OntoSelect provides an access point for ontologies on any possible topic or domain that is automatically updated, organized in a meaningful way and with automatic support for ontology selection in knowledge markup. Unlike for instance the DAML and SchemaWeb ontology libraries, OntoSelect is not based primarily on a static registration of published ontologies, but includes a crawling procedure that monitors the web for any newly published ontologies in the following representation formats: RDF/S, DAML or OWL.

SchemaWeb is a directory of RDF schemas expressed in the RDFS, OWL and DAML OIL schema languages. SchemaWeb is a place for developers and designers working with RDF. It provides a comprehensive directory of RDF schemas to be browsed and searched by human agents and also an extensive set of web services to be used by software agents that wish to obtain real-time schema information whilst processing RDF data. RDF Schemas are the critical layer of the Semantic Web. They provide the semantic linkage that 'intelligent' software needs to extract value giving information from the raw data defined by RDF triples.

SemWebCentral is an Open Source development web site for the Semantic Web.
