With an increased interest in machine processable data, more and more data is now published in RDF (Resource Description Framework) format. This RDF data is present in independent and distributed resources which needs to be centralized, navigated and searched for domain specific applications. This paper proposes a new approach based on Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) to create a navigation space over semantic web data. This approach uses an extension of FCA and takes RDF triples and RDF Schema present on several independent sources and provide centralized access over the data resulting from several resources. Afterwards, SPARQL queries can be posed over this navigation space to access these distributed resources from one platform for information retrieval purposes.
