Linkout Type Descriptions

Link-outs in NG-CHMs are determined by assigning types to the row and column labels in a heat map. Plugins installed in the heat map viewer provide link-outs to appropriate resources for matching types.

A database describing in detail the available label types is under development.

As an interim measure this page lists the label types recognized by the standard NG-CHM plugins.
