GraphViz Site Map Generator

About this application
This web application accepts uploaded tab delimmited text files and converts them into clickable site maps using the GraphViz application. The application was created to demonstrate how GraphViz can be used as a tool for Information Architecture work.

Getting started
To get started you will have to prepare your upload file.

If you're interested in seeing the output of this application, take a look at the demo diagrams.

NOTE: Because of the memory limitation on this shared server, presently this demonstration can only render GIFs for files containing about 438 lines, although SVGs should be generated above that limit. Remember that this is a demonstration and that your mileage will vary. Better results can be expected on your system.

Please note. The output from the site map generator is now being expunged regularly, so you MUST SAVE YOUR WORK, including all GIFs, SVGs and .map files. Lost work is not recoverable once it has been expunged. -Michael Angeles
