Claim Text:
1. A method for kinetic mapping, comprising: identifying a geospatial interface representing information according to an overview scale; identifying a first point of interest within the geospatial interface and encapsulating the first point of interest to create a first portal; identifying a second point of interest within the geospatial interface and encapsulating the second point of interest to create a second portal; and generating a kinetic geospatial interface comprising the first portal displayed according to a first focused scale, the second portal displayed according to a second focused scale, and non-portal information displayed according to a collapsed scale; wherein the granularity of the first focused scale and the granularity of the second focused scale are different and wherein a level of the granularity of the first focused scale as compared with a level of granularity of the second focused scale is determined by ranking a relevancy of the first point of interest to a user of the kinetic geospatial interface to a relevancy of the second point of interest to the user of the kinetic geospatial interface.
