### Workshop facilitator(s)

### Abstract

Property Graphs are a powerful and flexible data structure used to represent relationships and properties based on graphs. The tutorial will give an introduction to property graphs including a comparision with RDF and how to map between both data structuring languages. After basic definition of property graphs and their elements we will look at examples and practical applications as well as tools and technologies such as graph database management systems and visualization tools. The workshop will include exercises using an online graph database and introduction to the query language CYPHER and to the property graph exchange format PG. Data modeling with property graphs is shown and compared to RDF with each of its advantages and limitations.

How are we going to attend? Which platform will be used? Do we need to log into a video conference room?
