This paper intends to analyze, compare, understand and explore the data relations among a collection, the collected items and user-created meaning appearing in different digital applications. Details of such relations are introduced and investigated with reference to several actual systems. In order to represent these three components in a way easy for users to interpret, navigate and interact, we introduce NEAR, a localized graph visualization tool to help people browse, understand and manipulate information in a digital architectural repository A•VI•RE.
