OWLDiff is a Pellet-backed tool that takes two OWL ontologies and executes/visualizes their (syntactic) two-way diff together with:

  • entailment checking of the different axioms
  • entailment explanations
  • fully semantic CEX diff for EL, see [1]
  • merge of the performed changes
  • various visualization options
  • easy SVN integration

The motivation for developing OWLDiff emerged during collaborative ontology authoring and sharing through SVN, as it became quite difficult to track changes in the same ontology made by other authors.
