SciPlore MindMapping is a mind mapping application written in Java. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License and based on the open source software FreeMind. The focus of SciPlore MindMapping is on combining mind maps with PDF and reference management. It is especially suited for the needs of researchers and scientists as it offers four unique features.:[1]

SciPlore MindMapping is supposed to be the first mind mapping tool that integrates mind mapping with reference management and enables the import of PDF bookmarks.[2] The software maintains a compatible file format to FreeMind 0.9.

The developer team announced in February 2011, that they plan to switch to Freeplane as code base.[3] The cooperation with Freeplane has been discussed at a meeting of the core developers of both projects in Munich on July 2011, and as a result, future versions will be released as an independent add-on for Freeplane.[4]

The development of SciPlore MindMapping has stopped and the project has been renamed to Docear.[5]
