All systems are dynamic, and static network diagrams have one big drawback: they do not describe the dynamics of the system properly. Therefore, timelines are needed as a central part of gigamapping. This article presents some timelines and scenarios. There is a...

Leverage Point investigation
Donella Meadows suggested the concept of Leverage Points (Norwegian: Inflytelsespunkter). Leverage points are places in a system where one can efficiently influence the system. The ZIP-analysis and the impact and threshold analyses cover some but not all of this. It...
Evaluation Tools
Gigamaps are rich and dense information representations. To work with such semi-organised complexities and develop the ideas within and to work with the interventions or innovations derived from the ZIP-analysis and the creative process, we must use a series of...
ZIP-Analysis: Zoom-Innovation-Potential
ZIP-analysis is a simple method for developing gigamaps and finding potential areas for interventions, innovations and ideas. ZIP stands for zoom, innovation (idea, intervention, innovation) and potential (problem or ‘painpoint’). The ZIP-analysis maps below provide...
