ODM Commands

Within Enterprise Architect, ODM has four management commands to help you maintain your ODM models:

  • Export OWL/RDF models as a .rdf or .xml file
  • Import OWL or RDF content (in .owl or .rdf XML file format) as an ODM model Package
  • Create a new namespace definition for an rdfDocument or owlOntology Package
  • Create a new label definition for a valid RDF or OWL element (such as an owlClass, objectProperty, rdfClass or rdfProperty)
