Relationship navigator

Connect concepts, recognize distinctions and examine why a connection is recorded.

3,455 catalogue relations (working edition)1,226 concepts3,455 with an individual rationale500 adopted individual rationales3 resolved special cases

The navigator shows the existing canonical inventory. Recorded review statuses differ; inclusion does not imply the same evidence level for every connection. The added rationales have been editorially adopted locally. Their basis and the three corrections are documented for each connection. Historical catalogue records remain available in each change record.

Find a connecting route between two concepts
How are two concepts connected?

Up to four existing relations; directed connections are followed only in their recorded direction. Every step shows its rationale and documented editorial treatment.
