Essential functions

Progressive Web Application (PWA)

With SHIVA, your browser becomes your software for creating knowledge maps and your visual analysis tool. Once the application is loaded, you work in local mode for greater confidentiality. If your Internet access is disrupted, no problem: you can still use it and save your work.

Knowledge trees

The creation of knowledge trees enables information to be organised and displayed hierarchically. This feature makes it easy to navigate complex subjects, with interconnected nodes representing key concepts. Users can explore the tree, adjust details and modify elements, promoting effective learning and better communication of ideas.

Geographical representation

Overlaying the nodes of a mind map onto an OpenStreetMap map background combines mind maps and geospatial data to visualise complex relationships. Users can explore and interact with the nodes of the heuristic map, while benefiting from the geographical context to better understand the underlying issues or trends.

Statistical indicators

The automatic creation of statistical visual indicators from the data used to structure the mind map provides in-depth analysis and a better understanding of the information presented. By transforming data into interactive graphs, charts or dashboards, this software makes it easier to identify trends, correlations and anomalies. Users can then draw informed conclusions and make decisions based on these visual indicators.

Importing structured data

The software allows you to create a tree structure from a structured file by choosing the columns that will be used to represent each level of your tree. In particular, this enables you to visually sort the information contained in a database or table and highlight indicators. This function opens the door to the vast possibilities of using open data sets to create large tree structures and analyse their content.

Dynamic mapping

Javascript technology makes it possible to interact with external information sources to create maps dynamically. In other words, by displaying the structure according to the result of a query. Wikipedia has been chosen as the main source to demonstrate the tool's capabilities. WikXplorer can be used to automatically generate a personalised map from a query to the various Wikipedias and then by simply moving through the various nodes.
