Visualization

Visual representations of legal text, in order to make it easier for humans to read.

Diagrams

  • C-O diagrams
  • Diagram notation in <normalized_legal_drafting_query_method>
  • Graphs generated from licenses at Licentia

Formatting

More low-key visualization aid.

  • Break down sentences into smaller chunks
  • Use bullet points
  • Use indentation
  • Use hyphens or parentheses to avoid attachment ambiguity

Example from Camilleri (2017):

if {the flight} leaves {in two hours} then both
  - {the ground crew} must open {the check-in desk}
  - {the ground crew} must request {the passenger manifest}

(The particular example also happens to be a that compiles to a formal representation. But this is an orthogonal question.)
