1. A method for constructing dynamic relationships between data for presentation on a display, the data obtained from one or more data sources and managed as a plurality of nodes, the plurality of nodes being linked based on characteristics of the data contained in the nodes, the nodes increasing or decreasing in number over time, the method comprising:

  • setting a point of view from one of the nodes of the plurality of nodes, the setting of the point of view acting to order certain ones of the plurality of nodes to produce a representation from the point of view;

    generating visual data that illustrates the representation of the plurality of nodes from the set point of view; and

    providing the visual data for rendering on a display of a device;

    wherein certain ones of the nodes contain unique identity data for individuals, and the nodes are associated with other nodes based on relationships between the individuals, the representation presenting at least some associations between the nodes for defining the visual data, wherein the method is executed by a processor.
