Description Download links
Introduction to Multiple Tree View.
Dataset: Apiaceae (4 classifications).
Shows: brushing for taxon details; highlight other taxa in same classification that are children of brushed node; highlight taxa in other classifications that are linked by name (synonomy) to one of the highlighted taxa in the brushed classification.
Download video [Windows avi]* (0.56Mb)
Multiple Tree View Demonstration.
Dataset: Ranunculaceae (7 classifications).
Shows: brushing for taxon details; navigation through a classifiaction (Radford 1968); co-ordinated navigation across different classifications (linked by taxon name); filtering the list view and co-ordinated view with multiple tree view; marking taxa; linking across classification by explicitly defined relationships.

Multiple Tree View (Alternative demonstration).
Dataset: Mosses (16 classifications).
Shows: opening a dataset; filtering the list view and co-ordinated view with multiple tree view; marking linked taxa (by name); making one classification into a main classification (Koperski et al.); brushing; linking across classification by explicitly defined relationships; marking multiple taxa.

History View.
Dataset: Apiaceae (8 classifications).
Shows: navigation of history view; selecting history item to return visualsiation to that state in other views. View history comments.

Introduction to Merged DAG View - view children.
Dataset: Apiaceae (8 classifications).
Shows: select taxon from the list view (tribe Smyrniae) and co-ordinated view with merged DAG view; brushing over classifications' links in tribe Smyrniae to highlight child genera in those classifications.

Merged DAG View - view paths to root.
Dataset: Apiaceae (8 classifications).
Shows: select taxon from the list view (genus Daucus) and co-ordinated view with merged DAG view; brushing over classifications' links in genus Daucus to highlight the alternative paths to the root in those classifications.

Merged DAG View and Treemap View Demonstration.
Dataset: Apiaceae (8 classifications).
Shows: Co-ordinated view between merged DAG and treemap view.

Concept Relationship Editor Demonstration.
Dataset: Ranunculaceae (2 classifications).
Shows: establishing and defining explicit relationships between taxa of two classifications of Ranunculaceae.
