Maps Reflect Variety of Networks and Purposes |
The OrgScope application contains extensive functions for creating, changing, and enhancing diverse maps of trees (hierarchies) and networks. Once configured as desired, the maps can published to the web as a Java applet and viewed in a browser. Samples referenced include several live models of Orgscope-in-a-browser and a number of slideshows with screenshots. |

Demo Map of Organizational Hierarchy |
Experience OrgScope by flying through maps of "Demo3, Inc." a fictional company with 4000 employees, 8 levels deep from the CEO to the lowest position. These maps and their network metrics allow you to navigate and evaluate your organization's structure on a secure internal website. Maps represent data from an enterprise HR system (e.g., SAP) as calculated and displayed by the OrgScope application.For additional context, see the Stadium Parable, a story of the whys and hows of mapping the real organization. |
This very sketchy model shows how complex loosely connected networks can be mapped. Healthcare is a multi-scale network of interconnected organizations and people. Large-scale networks of all types are naturally organized in nested sets of whole-part relationships (hierarchy) with cross-links between them.Specific institutions, like hospitals or medical schools, have internal category structures (hierarchies) as well as interdependencies with other institutions (e.g., formal affiliations). |
