Thinkmap is a software platform for developing customized visualization interfaces to complex data

What Company Is Offering:
Thinkmap is a software platform for developing customized visualization interfaces to complex data. The software provides a system for crafting visualizations with structured data in order to make the information more intuitive, accessible, manageable and meaningful. Thinkmap visualizations can make relationships in the data more apparent than can traditional line or column displays and can improve understanding and discovery.

Thinkmaps are highly customizable and are deployed by companies in variety of rich applications: knowledge management, operations and workflow, network management, e-commerce, research & development, and intelligence. Via the Thinkmap Software Developer Kit, developers can quickly create their own visualizations tailored to their data and integrated with their applications. Thinkmap runs on a variety of platforms and can be deployed in a variety of ways.

How It Works:

Thinkmap enables organizations to incorporate dynamic, data-driven information visualization technology into their enterprise Web applications. Thinkmap applications allow knowledge workers to make sense of complex information in ways that traditional interfaces can't. Data that may seem too overwhelming, too multi-faceted, or too dry for engaging users comes to life inside Thinkmap visualizations, keeping knowledge workers more engaged and effective. Thinkmaps make information more intuitive and understandable, often leading to discoveries of relationships and nuance not otherwise possible.
