History

The Hive Group is a privately held company founded in 2000, with headquarters in Richardson, Texas.[6] The company’s treemapping software is called Honeycomb. Ben Shneiderman, the inventor of the treemap concept, is a member of The Hive Group’s Board of Advisors.[7] [8] The number of employees is believed to be fewer than 50.[9]

Industry recognition – Early adoption by the United States Marine Corps

A large quantity of information can be found, both in printed form and on the internet, detailing the Honeycomb-based USMC MERIT application. In 2003, the USMC deployed treemaps to all theaters of USMC operation.[10] This deployment has led to broad adoption of treemaps within the United States Department of Defense[11] and has received the following industry awards and recognition:

  • US Department of Navy eGov[12]
  • US Department of Defense CIO (second place, team category)[13]
