Risk Cartography is online
The prototype of Risk-Cartography is online now. Please visit our tool on: http://riskcart1.wzu.uni-augsburg.de. Most of the main features have already been implemented. For a next version we are working on extra features like: chronology and views of discourse formations.
Below, you can find an collection of tests we did for evaluating other tools for mapping. We will continously add more tools from macospol.org to this collection. The aim is, to show the potential of the tools for mapping controversies by filling them with our case studies.
