Habitat is a kowledge graphing tool that converts any text into local knowledge. In tech-speak, it is modular and pluggable, is built on best practices, and will be open source. It takes our words, graphs them into climate-domain relationships to build a public, evolving and local climate model.
The Commons is as a worker-owned cooperative focused on local media and tech. Our structure enables direct community involvement in developing and maintaining knowledge resources for local climate responsiveness. It also enables members to dream up and even spinoff great media-tech tools.
Habitat is built locally, from the ground up, on Natural Language Processing and a graph database and neural network. It transforms climate-related information into structured, queryable knowledge. Habitat turns everyday documents and our own words into local climate knowledge-media.
The Vineyard and our region is a language. Habitat reads our words, concepts, and phrases to create a local language model. Stories become a medium for deeper community climate relationships. Write a story. It can be read and become a prompt for someone elses discovery. Here's a bit of how.
Continuously, we effectively self-organize and sustainably manage a commons through language. Our words, gestures and actions do real work. Over time and in context we build ideas into this conversation, that proposal — in our own words. A focused common pool matters. Habitat helps.
