VIVO can be used to mange the hierarchical structure, or organizational chart, of any organization.  We describe how VIVO represents organizational structure, and how to create data that can be loaded into VIVO to represent the structure of an organization.  The Sample  The Sample Data has a sample university, with sample colleges and departments, illustrating the techniques described here.
