Visualizing MapofTomorrow.org Data on Kumu.io

Usecase

So far map of tomorrow is only a geografical map, but often it is less important, where an entry is, but rather, with whom it is connected or to which topic it belongs.

https://kumu.io/ is a great tool for visualisation of Data in a Mindmap / thematical map style. Example:

(source of example: https://www.catalist.network/explore-data-types)

Can we visualize Map of tomorrow Data on Kumu?

• Currently we have 35.000 entries, which can be fetched via the API https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/Kartevonmorgen/openfairdb/
• We can also download everything by csv to upload it to cumu. Unfortunately, then there wont be any updates...
• To not overlaod the kumu map, it might make sense to start with certain hashtags.

How to visualize

We have many entries (dots) which are connected by hashtags (lines). The more similar hashtags two entries have, the closer they are together or the bigger is the line between them.

1. Thematical visualisizion: One hashtag is in the middle, and all entries with that hashtag around. behind that first row are entries with similar hastags.
2. Entry-central visualisation: One initiative or company is in the middle and around them other entries with similar tags. the more of the same tags they have, the closer they come to the central entry...
