Knowledge Atlas
Marco Quaggiotto developed ATLAS, an interface prototype for the exploration of research resources, that allows users to manage bio-bibliographic resources in a shared environment and access them through different maps and representations. More information is available at knowledgecartography.org

Context: there is a strong interest/need to think about navigation of
complex knowledge terrains. The links provided here barely scratch the

But, a quick check of the term "knowledge atlas spaces" turns up
important ambiguities, one of which is here:

"What is Knowledge Atlas?

A learning tool on the Web. If Facebook is "who I am" and Twitter is
"what I am doing", then Knowledge Atlas is "what I know". Knowledge
Atlas is designed for individuals to create their own knowledge spaces
and connect what they know with others. "

Surfing http://knowledgeatlas.coop/ leads to a lot of useful
information, UX ideas, and much more.

"How Knowledge Atlas works

Knowledge Atlas uses trees to map out concepts and how they relate in
regards to time, cause and effect and complexity. It also uses
storylines to portray narratives and points of view."

" The process of building Storylines and Trees encourages learners to
consider a wide range of perspectives and sources of information. When
we organize information visually, like a map, the uncharted areas
quickly become apparent and you become aware of disparate, yet
related, concepts and ideas. As more related information is provided,
a greater understanding takes form. The visual structure itself is a
powerful catalyst to help build your own mental model/cognitive
structure of the topic you are learning.

Once your information is in the Knowledge Atlas, other researchers and
the general public have powerful new browsing and discovery tools to
easily find your precise information and reference links. At a glance,
the cognitive and visual pathways allow the user to navigate across
large swaths of information. You just need to find one concept, or
idea, of interest, and all other related ones become accessible. Fast
and complex queries, critical thinking, and the ability to synthesize
a much larger breadth of subject matter becomes second nature. "
