VIVO 2013 Conference

RDF InContext visualization tool from the Netherlands

from Maurice Vanderfeensten

Hi VIVO people,

In the SURFshare programe in the Netherlands, a HTML5 library has been  
developed to visualise research in context. www.surf.nl/incontext It has been  
set to use in NARCIS to enhance publications.

A lot of money has been invested in this open Source HTML5 library to  
visualise rdf in a pleasant and understandable way, including animations,  
designed and tested by interaction designers. Currently this tool is sitting  
on a shelf catching dust.

With Nick Veenstra from Eindhoven University we were thinking this HTML5  
library / rdf-InContext tool might be put to use as a VIVO widget. The  
visualisation also works on for example iPads, and makes it able to  
experience the VIVO data on small and big touch interfaces for single users.

I have placed the code on GitHub, where it can easily be forked for your VIVO  
project. https://github.com/mosart/rdf-InContext

Please let me know who to contact if this might be a good idea to bring in as  
a VIVO widget.

kind regards,
Maurice
