The Wikidata Topicmaps UI provides users functionality to build personal views, so called Topic Maps, based on the current #wikidata.
Its an alternate user-interface allowing to search, explore and map the 'shared structures of meaning' (J. Murray, New Media Reader) in #wikidata. We established this service to empower researchers, users and developers of wikidata - and other - communities worldwide.
This service is provided as a Wikimedia Labs project in a collaborative effort of the Wikimedia Foundation and the DeepaMehta e.V.
For further documentation on the project please visit the projects wiki-tech page or the concept development page in the DeepaMehta Wiki.
Besides the DeepaMehta 4 Standard Distribution, this service is comprised of the following DeepaMehta 4 plugins:
This service is live at http://wikidata-topicmaps.wmflabs.org and everyone is welcome to register and start creating Topicmaps based on wikidata items.
After 3 and 1/2 years of work, 7 beta releases, 5 weeks after schedule, at Aug 7, 2020 DMX 5.0 has finally arrived.
The focus of this final milestone was on improving the DMX development experience. The APIs are consolidated, and a DMX Developer Guide is available, as well as API docs. There are minor Webclient UI improvements and crucial bug fixes as well. For more information and download link see this forum posting.
Note: since version 5 DeepaMehta is called "DMX".
DMX 5.0-beta-4 is released at July 22, 2019. Two and a half years in the making of DMX (formerly "DeepaMehta 5") this is the first release that provides Data Guarantee. That is when you install a newer version in the future (beta-5, …) your content will be migrated automatically. Start with DMX 5.0-beta-4 today and your content will be safe. Further highlight features and improvements of this release include Pinnable Detail Panel, up to 10 times faster topicmap rendering performance, improved interaction with topic/association details, and improved handling of HTML links.
