Abstract

The social relationships graph i.e. sociogram allows a transparent view of people in their surroundings to whom we have a certain relationship. Such options have already depicted many tools. They generally use data from social networks, e.g. Facebook or Google+. Certainly, not every such a graph is entirely transparent and usable. A sociogram contains a large number of vertices and edges when there are a larger number of people in their surroundings. Then it is not possible to simply work with the graph and subsequently describe it. In this article, we introduce options that will make the sociogram transparent, thus offering easier work with it. We work with a software tool from the IHMC company, called CmapTools, which normally operates on desktop operating systems. In our case, we are working with a version for the Android OS, which has been externally developed for the company for a long time, but has not yet been publicly introduced.
