Sensemap

Connecting Voices Across Conversations

Prototypes

SenseMap invites users to discover how individual stories connect to larger patterns with visualizations powered by D3.js. Using tags from qualitative coding to show how the voices in a collection of conversations connect, SenseMap unlocks a new kind of sensemaking output to help sensemakers tell their community’s story.
