This paper discusses an ontology exploration tool which allows the users to explore an ontology according to their own perspectives. It extracts concepts from an ontology and visualizes them in a user-friendly form, i.e. conceptual map, in which the user is interested. It helps users to understand the extracted knowledge from the ontology, and contribute to integrated understanding of ontologies and domain dependent knowledge.

Keywords: conceptual map, ontology exploration, view point
