Knowledge Graphs are extensively adopted in a variety of disciplines to support knowledge integration, visualization, unification, analysis and sharing at different levels. On the other side, Ontology has gained a significant popularity within machine-processable environments, where it is extensively used to formally define knowledge structures. Additionally, the progressive development of the Semantic Web has further contributed to a consolidation at a conceptual level and to the consequent standardisation of languages as part of the Web technology. This work focuses on customizable visualization/interaction, looking at Knowledge Graphs resulting from formal ontologies. While the proposed approach in itself is considered to be scalable via customization, the current implementation of the research prototype assumes detailed visualizations for relatively small data sets with a progressive detail decreasing when the amount of information increases. Finally, issues related to possible misinterpretations of ontology-based knowledge graphs from a final user perspective are briefly discussed.
