Tag Heatmap
Describe the solution you'd like Tagspaces currently has a geographic map of tags, useful for photos and location-based products/services. But what about heat mapping of tags and folders and the interconnection between them?
For collaboration in the Cloud this solution of "Folders & Tag Structure Heatmap" would be useful for absolutely all sectors, especially for the development of new services/products, creativity etc. It would also be very useful for the individual user who when he gets to many folders and many tags really doesn't have a good look at how his files and folders are interconnected.
Take a look at the following picture Photo for overview (as an idea) - For demonstration purposes
Tag Heatmap - Case study 1 Imagine that in the picture above are your tags and folders mapped on a heat map showing all the relationships (links) between them. It makes sense, a tag can be assigned to multiple files and folders. But when there are too many, you don't have an overview mapping, you don't know how they are all interconnected.
Folder Heatmap - Case study 2 Imagine for example that in the picture above the circle with "Privacy" is a tag and when you click on it the lines with the folders it is interconnected with, or maybe even sub-tags, are highlighted. Or imagine that "Privacy" is a folder and when you scroll on it in the "Heatmap" you see all membership tags and how they are spread, and when you click on the folder / tag to highlight the lines with the tags it is interconnected with.
Log analysis - Case study 3 Suppose you receive a folder that has several folders and files and you need to analyze them (e.g information forensics). Without a "Heatmap" showing the links between all folders and all files, and without being able to quickly add tags and quickly interconnect and link the ones you want, you are almost lost! "Folders & Tag Heatmap Structure" could quickly solve all analysis scenarios (including teamwork - via Cloud, AWS etc). Basically this "Tag Heatmap" implementation would not only solve problems, but open up new markets. Think about this opportunity!
Conclusion - A market demands In this digital age, information and document mapping (the overview) has become the most important factor in the organisational process. Teamwork and workflow has been solved by tools like Jira, Kanban board, Scrum board etc; but mapping, the big picture view of the whole puzzle needs a "Heatmap". Think that Github has Skyline for 3D (+ a basic Heatmap), all powerful SaaS security, management and information of file analysis software now have a "Heatmap".
This Folders & "Tag Heatmap" idea is open for improvements!
Until version 2 of the app, we had have something similar already in the app: https://docs.tagspaces.org/perspectives/folderviz
