Abstract
A unique method and system is disclosed for organizing and visualizing hierarchical information. It comprises an editor and a visualization engine. The editor visually organizes information elements into hierarchy by iterating elementary (binarization) steps. The binarization step splits the information elements and a quadrangular space into two parts and associates them with each other. A user may refine each partition to unlimited depth by drilling down to new level. This way, a hierarchical structure is created which is visually grouped into levels by so-called covering sets. The visualization engine, which might work independently from the editor, renders the covering sets into quadrangular-shaped visualization spaces, visualizing compact space-partitions. Several techniques aid rendering and enhanced visualization, such as windowing, visualization rules, grids, equal and alternate splitting. Users navigate in the hierarchy by zooming or moving directions. There are countless usage areas including news, education, presentations, realtime visualization.
