复杂信息系统制图工具
我正在寻找一个类似 Visio 的工具，它可以帮助我在组件级别绘制信息系统。
该设计不适合一张纸，我想要一个带有“无限”纸的网络工具，以及一个适当的导航系统。
例如，我想到的一个想法是使用 Google Earth 上的 KML 图层来绘制信息系统并对其进行导航。我不知道在 Google 地球中创建一个类似 Visio 的拖放编辑器有多容易。
你有没有发现过这样的工具？您如何处理信息系统的鸟瞰图？
感谢您的帮助，

I am looking for a Visio-like tool that would help me draw my information system at the component level.
The design will not fit on a single piece of paper and I would like a web tool with a sort of 'infinite' sheet of paper, and a proper navigation system.
An idea that crossed my mind for example is to use KML layers on Google Earth to draw the information system and navigate it. I don't know though how easy it would be to do a Visio-like drag and drop editor inside Google Earth.
Have you ever found such a tool? How do you handle bird's eye views of your information system?
Thanks for your help,
Jérôme Wagner

这个问题非常贴近我的心。我花了数年时间寻找一种完美的方式来可视化系统架构。我也能理解“无限”纸张的概念。
我试图利用“第二人生”作为一个无限的表面来描绘系统。当您飞越该区域时，您会看到全局 - 代表主要模块和连接它们的基础设施的大型结构。然后，您可以下降并走进结构以查看更多底层设计元素。听起来很疯狂？相信我，确实如此。
我还在编写自己的可视化软件，其中一个系统由一些远程类似由多个管道连接的水塔的东西表示。我走得太远了，但还没有达到令人满意的结果。
幸运的是，我不久前遇到了“Views and Beyond”方法 http:/ /www.amazon.com/Documenting-Software-Architectures-Views-Beyond/dp/0321552687/。这本书修复了我。我现在不再梦想一些神奇的互动解决方案，而是拥有可靠的方法。我简直无法高度推荐这本书。
This question is very close to my heart. I spent years searching for a perfect way to visualize a system architecture. I can relate to a notion of 'infinite' sheet of paper as well.
I tried to utilize "Second Life" as an infinite surface on which to depict the system. As you fly over the area, you see the big picture - big structures representing the main modules and infrastructure connecting them. You can then descend and walk into the structure to see more low level design elements. Sounds crazy? Believe me, it was.
I was also writing my own visualization software where a system was represented by something remotely resembling water towers connected by multitude of pipes. I went too far but didn't get even close to satisfactory results.
As luck had it, I came across "Views and Beyond" approach some time ago http://www.amazon.com/Documenting-Software-Architectures-Views-Beyond/dp/0321552687/. This book fixed me. Instead of dreaming of some magical interactive solutions, I now have a solid and sound approach at my disposal. I simply cannot recommend this book highly enough.
几年前，Perforce 就有过类似的事情。我记得多布博士日记上有一些广告。
通过 Google 快速搜索即可找到此内容。
Perforce had something like that a couple of years ago. I remember some ads on Dr Dobb's Journal.
A quick Google search finds this.
