Zomit is a generic package for developing zoomable user interfaces (ZUIs) that can aid in navigating large information spaces. 

Zoomit provides an application programming interface for developing servers for such navigation and visualization, and a generic architecture-independent client (JavaTM applet) that queries such servers. As an illustration of the capabilities of our approach, we have developed ZoomMap, a prototype browser for the HuGeMap human genome map database.
