The Open Tree of Life is an online phylogenetic tree of life – a collaborative effort, funded by the National Science Foundation. [2] [3] The first draft, including 2.3 million species, was released in September 2015. [4] The Interactive graph allows the user to zoom in to taxonomic classifications, phylogenetic trees, and information about a ...
Hypermedia exploration with interactive dynamic maps Paper by Zizi and Beaudouin-Lafon introducing the squarified treemap layout algorithm (named "improved treemap layout" at the time). Indiana University description; Live interactive treemap based on crowd-sourced discounted deals from Flytail Group; Treemap sample in English from The Hive Group
The idea of a tree of life arose from ancient notions of a ladder-like progression from lower into higher forms of life (such as in the Great Chain of Being).Early representations of "branching" phylogenetic trees include a "paleontological chart" showing the geological relationships among plants and animals in the book Elementary Geology, by Edward Hitchcock (first edition: 1840).
Edward Hitchcock's fold-out paleontological chart in his 1840 Elementary Geology. Although tree-like diagrams have long been used to organise knowledge, and although branching diagrams known as claves ("keys") were omnipresent in eighteenth-century natural history, it appears that the earliest tree diagram of natural order was the 1801 "Arbre botanique" (Botanical Tree) of the French ...
Flyover City Tours were released around 2014, but was inaccessible for a time until the feature was debugged by an Apple Maps developer, making it public. [17] City Tours is a feature that allows users to view various landmarks in a given city via a "flying" animation, [3] a feature only available to cities that already contain Flyover 3D maps ...
The design may have inspired later 'Maps of World History' such as the HistoMap by John B. Sparks, which chronicles four thousand years of world history in a graphic way similar to the enlarging and contracting nation streams presented on Adam's chart. Sparks added the innovation of using a logarithmic scale for the presentation of history.
The New York City Tree Map is an interactive map by the parks department that catalogues more than 850,000 trees in the city. [19] The NYC Department of Parks observes Earth Day and Arbor Day. [18] Street trees as a metaphor for urban life were popularized in the 1943 novel A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. [20]
