Fly around your family tree with a new interactive website
People can explore their detailed family tree and grow its branches by sharing information with relatives, thanks to new interactive website ZoomPast.
After researching their family histories, people are often left with sprawling family trees that are difficult to visualise and share. The new website, www.ZoomPast.org, solves this problem by allowing huge and complex genealogies to be explored using an innovative zooming interface, similar to an interactive map.
The family trees of famous and fictional people can also be explored on the site, from Queen Elizabeth II:
and George Washington to Harry Potter. Genealogies can be viewed from the perspective of any person in a given tree, and a built-in social and sharing platform allows trees to be shared and grown collaboratively or kept completely private.
