Summary

Generated by orthographically projecting and tiling semantic maps (= visual representations of semantic information spaces based on a landscape metaphor), knowledge planets allow visualizing massive amounts of textual data. At the time of map generation, the planet’s topology is determined by the content of the knowledge base. The peaks of the virtual landscape indicate abundant coverage on a particular topic, whereas valleys represent sparsely populated parts of the information space.
