Interactive maps of how concepts are related #188

Open ronaldtse opened 2 years ago

A graph can easily be created using content in a concept dataset.

  1. Create edges for how every concept links to another
  2. Place those edges into a graphing tool like GraphViz (or the web versions, e.g. WebGraphViz)
  3. Obtain the graph

It could look like this: image001

@ronaldtse I have obtained a graph by adding an edge from a definition to all the referenced definitions that are in it. Is this what you are looking for or did I miss something? And what should I do with this graph?

graphviz

Thanks, I'll think about what we can do here.

@ronaldtse An approach might be to subdivide the graph into sub-domains, which make sense / are useful for specific user groups. How these should be defined is an open question for me. The Cadastre and Land Administration Thesaurus (CaLAThe) at http://www.cadastralvocabulary.org/, which includes a GraphViz-based rendering of its concepts, may provide an example of a user group.
