 ## Overview
 The CMAP Visualization Toolkit offers a free suite of open-source tools to analyze and visualize text data: including fieldnotes, in-depth interview transcripts, historical documents, web-pages, and other forms of non-numeric information. It is designed for scholars working with qualitative methods, who have an interest in the possibilities for pattern analysis, data visualization, and identifying alternative explanations found in computational social science's (CSS).
