Interactive visualization techniques facilitate the examination of unknown data sets. At the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (U.S. EPA) Scientific Visualization Center, we are exploring the combination of 3D visual displays with emerging information technologies. The following discussion highlights prototype efforts in three arenas: (1) Integrating Visualization into Data Mining Techniques; (2) Exploring Policy Analysis Visualization and (3) Combining Object-Relational Databases, Visualization and Web Technologies. The three prototypes are still in embryotic form. We anticipate it will take three to five years for actualization of these concepts and precise implementation details will change over time.The U.S. EPA is currently designing and implementing a new high profile Office of Environmental Information that will advocate the use and management of information as a strategic resource to enhance public health and environmental protection. New information technologies will be applied to facilitate the collection and dissemination of environmental data. We are hopeful that interactive visualization tools will be successfully used across the entire range of users, computing platforms and World Wide Web (Web) technologies that support the information life cycle.
