作者描述了如何使用Net-Map，(1)一种低技术、低成本、基于访谈的地图工具，研究者、促进者和实施者可以使用它来(1)可视化隐性知识，理解复杂的正式和非正式网络、权力关系和行为者目标之间的相互作用；(2)发现矛盾的根源和合作的潜力；(3)促进知识交流和学习过程；(4)制定实现共同目标的愿景和战略。作者表明，该工具可以产生定性和定量数据，通过超越纯粹的社会网络分析（SNA）的结构驱动方法，并将结构度量与行为者属性度量相结合，特别是关于他们的感知影响和目标，从而增加对网络的理解。作者介绍了来自加纳实地研究的经验，以说明该程序，并简要讨论了该工具的可能应用。
The authors describe how to use Net-Map,(1) a low-tech, low-cost, interview-based mapping tool that can be used by researchers, facilitators, and implementers to (1) visualize implicit knowledge and understand the interplay of complex formal and informal networks, power relations, and actors' goals; (2) uncover sources of conflicts as well as potentials for cooperation; (3) facilitate knowledge exchange and learning processes; and (4) develop visions and strategies to achieve common goals. The authors show that the tool can produce both qualitative and quantitative data to increase network understanding by going beyond the purely structure-driven approach of social network analysis (SNA) and combine structural measures with measures of attributes of actors, especially concerning their perceived influence and their goals. The authors present experiences from a field study from Ghana to illustrate the procedure and briefly discuss possible applications of the tool.
