Abstract

An information presentation apparatus includes an information organization structure editing unit, a search condition creating unit, an information collection unit, and a collection result joining unit. The editing unit prompts a user to enter plural terms and one or more relations among said terms and store them as an information organization structure. The search condition creating unit creates a search condition of information from the terms and the relations among the terms stored in the information organization structure. The information collection unit searches information storage by using the created search condition and collect location information of the data meeting the search condition. The collection result joining unit visually joins the terms and the relations among the terms stored in the information organization structure with the location information of the searched data and displays the joined result.
