Browsing the data

Describo creates a JSON Linked Data structure internally. However, it is often helpful to view a tabular representation of the data for quality assurance and other purposes. For example, getting a list of all the people described and confirming that each has a given name defined.

Consider the following images. In the first image we see the Browse section of Describo showing a listing of all of the entities currently defined. Along the top we have controls to filter the data by type and by the content of the @id and name properties.

If we wanted to see just the people defined we could set type to Person and we would see:

The data is now showing only the people that have been described. Let's add the givenName and familyName properties to see which people have more than just a simple name defined.

In the controls we can define which properties to show in the section Show properties. You can add as many properties as you wish here and they will be displayed for the entities showing.

In this way we can easily see that we have one person with givenName defined.
