New Version of COSEE-OS Software Released! - 06.04.2010

Concept map showing list of assets
Over 200 workshop and other COSEE-OS participants have provided specific recommendations on how to improve our software tools. Many of these have been implemented in the newly released Version 1.6 that includes the following new features:

  • Asset previewing: The ability to see the number and type of assets (i.e., images, videos, news, teaching resources) that are attached to a concept in both the Concept Map Builder and Ocean Climate Interactive
  • Map Linking: The ability to link maps to other existing maps through concepts
  • Ocean Climate Interactive (OCI) previewing: A preview that displays what a map will look like when presented in the OCI
  • Improved formatting of concepts (including text formatting without HTML coding)
  • Ability to duplicate objects (concepts, lines, phrases)
  • "Undo" capability

Early user feedback on the new software has been positive, and COSEE-OS will continue to test and refine the tools in the future through its workshops and other programs.
