 The concept of layers and layer stack in Wandora is similar to the layer concept of many graphic creation and manipulation applications such as Adobe's PhotoShop where single image may contain multiple layers and graphics designer manipulates one layer at a time. Layer implementation in graphic application ables the designer to isolate finished image parts from unfinished and enables rapid versioning. This is the motivation behind Wandora's layer implementation also. To make designer's life easier.

-Wandora supports multiple different data storage options for topic maps. Usually memory stored topic map, i.e. Memory topic map is sufficient. However, the amount of memory limits also the size of potential topic maps. Database storage option is available for large topic maps with millions of topics and associations. Wandora also introduces special topic map constructs used to stack multiple topic maps into a single topic map, to filter and to mirror existing topic maps. Current version of Wandora supports next layer types, i.e. topic maps:

 Wandora supports layered topic maps. Layered topic map contains one or more topic maps stacked into an ordered array. Wandora user can add and delete topic maps in the layer stack. User can also make topic map layer invisible and lock layers.
