A system displays summaries of relationships of a selected data asset with other data assets at a limited number of levels upstream and downstream from the selected data asset in rows above and below the selected data asset. In each row, data assets are arranged in order of usage, with most used data asset displayed directly above or below the selected data asset. The user views grandparent-level data assets of a parent-level data asset that is directly above the selected data asset. The system includes a carousal feature to further navigate the lineage data upstream or downstream. By selecting a new data asset in the parent row, the user can view grandparent-level data assets of the newly selected data asset. The user can view multiple upstream or downstream levels arranged in respective rows displayed above or below the selected data asset. The system can analyze data from any application.
