This Glossary is a Work in Progress (WIP) of terms and abbreviations known to many users as "technical jargon" and will be updated as required.
It is hoped that the Glossary will provide answers to the challenges posed by some of the terminology used for working with the Geni software application not understood by users, thus reducing the need to search FAQs or other websites for explanations of abbreviations or technical language.
The explanations have been simplified as far as possible. If the meaning of words is still unclear or if you have any further concerns not already addressed in this Glossary, post your queries at:
