The project will develop methods (application) for combining user input with publicly accessible information in a manner that enables familial relationships spanning multiple consanguineous generations and connecting them with associated affinal relationships to produce a spatially optimized visualization of the resulting family tree. The method and subsequent visualization allow for an unlimited number of family trees to be connected and superimposed based on affinal relationships. The method enables affinal relationships to be easily added to a consanguineous family tree providing an efficient method for illustrating extended and even distant familial relationships.
