Metamaps
What is Metamaps?
Metamaps is a free and open-source technology for changemakers, innovators, educators and students. It enables individuals and communities to build and visualize their shared knowledge and unlock their collective intelligence.
You can find a version of this software running at metamaps.cc, where the technology is being tested in an open beta.
Metamaps is developed and maintained by a distributed, nomadic community comprised of technologists, artists and storytellers. You can get in touch by using whichever of these channels you prefer:

in your terminal.
There are instructions for setup on various platforms, with particular support for Mac and Ubuntu, which can be found here:
If you prefer to isolate your install in a virtual machine, you may find it simpler to setup using Vagrant:
We don't promise support for Windows, but at one point we had it running and we've kept those docs available for reference
