GovGraph is an innovative approach to visualizing and understanding the relationships within governance ecosystems. Unlike traditional scoring systems, GovGraph focuses on the connections and interactions between power users, such as Delegates, Developers, and Citizens.

By mapping these relationships through a dynamic and interactive graph, users can identify alliances, conflicts of interest, and clusters of influence. The system allows for detailed filtering and searching, providing insights into social graphs, voting patterns, and potential sybil attacks. This project aims to enhance the transparency and efficiency of the governance and funding processes.

Who has benefited most from the analytics work you have produced?

Here’s some feedback from various users:

Emily (OP Citizen House): this is very interesting! looks to me like I can use this to see the most connected people, who maybe also have the most influence... like vitalik and linda
Griff (Citizen, Delegate): It’s a fantastic tool for coordination in the Citizen House. Seeing the shared connections can greatly support planning and partnerships, as well as aid in checking for collusion.
Kevin Owocki (Citizen): seems like a nice way to get an at a glance view of the op political economy
Divine Comedian (Citizen): Tried it out, visually it looks cool
Luuk (OP Developer): That sounds great, we can add the graph to the Analytics page for sure. We’re also working on a second version of our website, which could have more sections about visualisations and maps
Alex Soto (OP governance contributor): I really like that there are different categories with which to filter the view and the level of interactivity it has. And yet, I miss categories more linked to the work within the collective (like ‘chosen in representative structures this season’ or ‘are part of x contribution path’); which is what I tried to reflect in my chart (we plan to add this feature soon)
