Abstract

The authors presents a tool developed by the Dutch company Magna View that enables the visual representation of the content of the UDC Master Reference File (UDC MRF). The tool contains a pre-processed UDC MRF and allows visualization of, for instance, hierarchy levels, number of classes within a hierarchy and provides an overview of UDC number distribution across all fields of knowledge. The tool is aimed at users and developers who work with and utilize the UDC MRF and can benefit from different kinds of classification data representation.
