Software Description:
ATLAS.ti is one of the most powerful tools forqualitative research. Managed documents, multi-document view,high-performance multimedia engine, intuitive margin-area codingfor all data types, and much more.
Officially accredited educational institutions and their officialmembers may obtain discounted educational licenses for exclusiveuse in academic teaching and research.
Multimedia
ATLAS.ti offers state-of-the art multimedia processing. Frame-leveland wave previews make coding audio and video material a joy;images can be fully coded in every detail and segments can even bemoved and re-sized.
Video
When you add a video document to a project, preview images arecreated. Next to the preview images you see the audio wave form. Byright-clicking on the video preview you can set a number of displayoptions in the context menu.
Audio
Like with video clips, you can zoom in on the audio wave asneeded.
Multi-Language
Simply switch the user interface to your desired language directlyfrom the main menu (Tools > Preferences > Set User InterfaceLanguage).
Multi-Docs
You can open up to four documents side-by-side in the ATLAS.ti HUeditor. This opens up fantastic possibilities for comparative workand makes work faster and more efficient all around.
Work on Multiple Documents At The Same Time
Documents can be dragged from the navigation pane or the P-DocsManager onto the region button to open them.
Linking Across Documents
The multi-document view makes it easy to link sections acrossvarious documents. Simply drag and drop a quotation between regions(1) to create what is called a hyperlink (3) in ATLAS.ti. Therelation between the two data segments can be labeled (2), e.g.using a relation like supports, explains, contracts or discusses.You can chose amongst a number of predefined lables or create yourown.
Analysis Tools
ATLAS.ti 7 is a powerful analytical tool. Its individual analysisoptions are centrally organized and designed for maximumefficiency, accuracy, and performance. Cloud views provide veryquick, accurate, and yet intuitive analytical access to your datamaterial. The query tool, ccooccurence explorer and thecodes-PD-table allow in-depth analysis.
All ATLAS.ti’s analysis tools can be used in complimentarycombinations for extremely accurate and in-depth explorationof your material.
The Query Tool
Use the Query Tool to retrieve quotations using their associatedcodes. The simplest retrieval of this kind using the Code Manageris “search for quotations with codes.” Double-click on a code toretrieve all its quotations. This may be regarded as a query evenif it is a simple one. The Query Tool can be used to create andprocess more complex queries that include combinations ofcodes.
A query is a search expression built from operands (codes and codefamilies) and operators (e.g. NOT, AND, OR, etc.) that define theconditions a quotation must meet to be retrieved (e.g., allquotations coded with both codes A and B).
By selecting codes or code families and operators, a query can bebuilt incrementally, instantaneously evaluated and displayed as alist of quotations. This incremental building of complex searchqueries gives you an exploratory approach for even the most complexqueries.
Cloud Views for Codes and Documents
The list of codes can be displayed in various cloud views. You candisplay the cloud based on number of code usage or on number oflinkages to other codes. The order can be arranged alphabeticallyor by frequency.
Cooccurence Explorer
The Cooccurrence Explorer allows you to see codes that co-occuracross all or just some selected primary documents. The result is across-tabulation of codes. It is often meaningful to apply filtersfor certain codes and documents in order to concentrate on a morespecific set of concepts. The side panels in the code and documentmanager allow you to quickly prepare the kind of filters you needin order to produce the kind of tables you want.
The Codes-Primary-Documents Table
The Codes-PD-Table can provide an overview of code frequencies bydocuments, or can show code frequencies by document groups, codegroup frequencies by document, or document group.
Visualization
ATLAS.ti 7 is a highly visually-oriented tool. This includeseverything from user interface (laid out to maximize convenienceand screen real estate) to various Object Managers to theintelligent layout of Network Views. Everything is equallyintuitive and efficient.
Network Views
Network views represent complex information by showing it in anintuitively accessible graphic means. This more closely resemblesthe way human memories and thoughts are structured. Cognitive“load” in handling complex relationships is reduced with the aid ofspatial representation techniques. ATLAS.ti uses networks to helprepresent and explore conceptual structures. Networks add aheuristic “right brain” approach to qualitative analysis.
The user can manipulate and display almost all objects within anATLAS.ti project as nodes in a network view. This includesquotations, codes, code families, memos, memo families, othernetwork views, primary documents (PDs), and PD families.
Print with Margin
The Print with Margin options shows the coded document as you seeit on screen. It is available for all text documents, PDF and imagefiles.
PDF
ATLAS.ti’s full-native PDF support lets you work with PDF files intheir native layout, in just the way you have come expect. No ifs,ands, or buts.
ATLAS.ti treats your PDF documents exactly like Acrobat Reader.Work as smoothly and flexibly as you would in Acrobat, utilizebookmarks, tables of content, scrolling, and flexible page views.Code to your heart’s delight – text, images, or anything else thatis on the page, down to whatever level of detail you need.Annotate, comment, link, search and query, visualize your results –it’s what computer-based data analysis was always meant to be.
Other QDA packages make you strip PDFs down to primitive textfiles. That is hardly an adequate way of working. Starting withATLAS.ti 6, you have been able to keep your original PDFsuntouched—layout, graphics, tables and all. That way your primarydata always remains uncorrupted and complete.
Coding PDF documents
GeoData
One of the most exciting software features – and one that is likelyto change the way you work if you haven’t used it yet – isATLAS.ti’s geo-coding support.
ATLAS.ti embeds Google Earth™ and makes its functionality availableinside the program. This has immense benefits and opens upfantastic possibilities for your work.
Picture, if you will, the world as your ultimate primary document.Freely move around in it and mark any section that interests you.Then treat that segment exactly the way you would any otherdocument in ATLAS.ti. Code it, comment it, and link it to otherobjects. Use direct hyperlinks from other primary documents forsupporting your arguments and for purposes of evidence orillustration.
The geo-coding facility even creates screenshots from any GoogleEarth™ view and assigns them as graphical primary documents. This“snapshot” helps you save system resources and makes sure that yourreference is secure against changes.
All features of Google Earth™ are available (including camera angleand height-over-ground). Additionally, the interaction between thetwo programs is truly bi-directional. This means that work done inATLAS.ti can be directly introduced into Google Earth™. Comment ona marked location in ATLAS.ti, and your comment will be displayedin Google Earth™. Powerful stuff!
And that’s still not all. Leverage the immense power of communityas embodied by Google Earth™ layers and by the possibility toexchange and directly import Google Earth™’s KMZ files (complexcommunity-created “overlays”). If it weren’t so tacky we’d call it“QDA 2.0.”
If your work is in or touches on fields like tourism, geography,urban planning, ethnology, cultural studies, sociology, health,action research, advertising and marketing – or even if you simplylike to take and document trips – you are bound to profit fromATLAS.ti’s unique geo-coding feature. Just like us, you will soonwonder how you used to go without this feature.
Surveys
Imagine converting the results of a large online survey into aHermeneutic Unit in ATLAS.ti with just a few mouse clicks. ATLAS.tilets you do just that!
