[Editor's note: This interactive visualization browses the CIA
World Factbook topology of geography by country. Featured edge
relationships include neighboring countries, spoken language,
and more.] Republished from Moritz.Stefaner. This radial browser
was designed to display complex concept network structures in a
snappy and intuitive manner. It can be used to visualize
conceptual structures, social networks, or anything else that
can be expressed in nodes and links. The CIA Factbook demo
displays the relations of countries, continents, languages and
oceans found in the CIA world factbook database . Click the
center node for detail information or click adjacent nodes to
put them in the center. The arrows on the top left can be used
to navigate your click history. Use the dropdown in the upper
right to directly access nodes by name. The varying distance to
the center node for nodes with many neighbors was only
introduced to enhance legibility and does not have a special
semantics.
