For researchers who work with text
TAPoR catalogues concordancers, annotators, topic models, stylometry packages, and visualization environments. Every record notes the platform, the license, and what the tool is actually good for.
Filter by the type of analysis.
Visualization
ZeeMaps quickly maps point data on Google base maps in two ways: 1) The user uploads a .csv file of data points and their locations. 2) A group of users all add their own data location points to the map, on their own time from their own devices. Each point can include text, video, image, or audio annotations. Basic functionality is free; larger uploads and large numbers of maps require a paid subscription.
Collaboration
Zenodo is a catch-all repository for research data. It accepts all research data, with no requirements on format, size, access restrictions, or license. It is intended to support storage, curation, and publication of big research data. It was developed by the OpenAIRE partner CERN, responding to a request by the European Commission to create an open catch-all repository for all EC funded research.
Gathering
Zoho provides a drag-and-drop interface for creating database-driven applications, such as forms.
Visualization
Zoomerang is online survey software. Users create and share their survey forms. It had the ability to export forms from Survey Monkey. It can be used for free but the paid plans include analysis tools. Zommerang is now part of Survey Monkey.
A suite of products developed for web designers that may be used to convert large images into a form that can be zoomed and panned. Zoomify enables large images to be viewed and manipulated, without an increase in server load or download time. It converts large images stored in raster formats (e.g. TIFF, JPEG) into a set of pieces or 'tiles' The individual pieces contain sub-sections of the image at different resolutions or levels of zoom, which are combined to create a type of mosaic. Features: Enables access to high quality still images without an increase in server load
