A Sense of Where You Are
The ASCII Sphere is the analog representation of our "Real World" data. The individual layers of the Global Matrix are geo-synchronous data maps. There is a global weather map, air traffic map, highway systems map, Internet map, railroads, communications, geo-physical, etc. etc.
These maps can all be indexed with each other since they share a common co-ordination structure. Furthermore, we can combine up to four layers and a "Base" map using the four part algorithm. When we give weighted values to these combinations of map layers we will delineate areas of greater and lesser concentration of interest. Manipulating our data generically, globally, and in multi-layered formats allows us to "visually display" the resultant data. This is our "Graphic User Interlace."
The plus/minus areas of an "Adaptive Landscape" can diagram:
• Fitness of knowledge (data or solution)
• Generic concentrations in polar or dendritic format
• NegativePositive "fit" for a definition or inquiry
A further consideration is that the next "high growth" area in Cyberspace is in embedded data chips. In order to network and access these myriad information systems will require "standardized" reference maps at the various levels of organization.
The same can be said for our map of the world of knowledge. Fortunately, if we consider the "reference function" to be part of the computer's indexing capability, the Dewey Decimal System divides into eight parts, which fit into both the digital and analog versions of the Global Matrix.
