ATLAS: An Analytical Topology of Logic, Aims, and Structure A domain-agnostic, pre-evaluative analytical framework for interrogating entities across multiple independent dimensions of understanding. The framework separates descriptive inquiry from evaluation by organizing analysis into orthogonal ontological, deontological, aetiological, and teleological domains, with an optional epistemological pre-flight for evidentiary grounding. ATLAS is designed to support disciplined analysis of physical artifacts, socio-technical systems, institutional constructs, and abstract phenomena prior to critique, design, or governance.
