genealogytree – Pedigree and genealogical tree diagrams
Pedigree and genealogical tree diagrams are proven tools to
visualize genetic and relational connections between
individuals. The naming (tree
) derives from historical family
diagrams. However, even the smallest family entity consisting of
two parents and several children is hardly a mathematical
tree –
it is a more general graph.
The package provides a set of tools to typeset genealogical trees (i.e., to typeset a set of special graphs for the description of family-like structures). The package uses an autolayout algorithm which can be customized, e.g., to prioritize certain paths.
