[Sigia-l] Themescape software-anyone familiar?

[Jan Knight]

Hi:
I'm doing some research for a client on some graphics programs. I've
found all that I need on 90% of them until I came across this one.

Themescape - "an application for managing high volumes of information.
Using a process known as Enterprise Information Mapping (EIM),
ThemeScape automatically harvests massive amounts of unstructured text,
extracts the major themes and topics, and creates an interactive map of
the information. The topographical maps show a big-picture view of the
content within large quantities of documents, Web pages, e-mail, and
other sources."


Seems it was produced by Cartia then in 2001 the company was acquired by
Aurigen Systems and now via their web site it's not an obviously
available product any longer.

Other than an old article in Information Today from 1999 about the
software and its capabilities, I can't find much info.  


Has anyone on this list used or heard of it?

Thanks.
Jan
