Abstract

This book provides the theory, practical details, and tools necessary for building visualizations or systems involving the visualization of data. The authors cover the spectrum of data visualizations, including mathematical and statistical graphs, cartography for displaying geographic information, two- and three-dimensional scientific displays, integrated analysis and visualization tools, and general information visualization techniques. Practitioners, developers, teachers and students as well as those interested in gaining some exposure to the field will get an in-depth understanding of visualization techniques and are provided with sufficient information, often with full source code, to complete an implementation; those with more modest aspirations can focus on the concepts, theory and high-level algorithm details.
