Abstract

Interest in visualization has grown in recent years, producing rapid advances in the diversity of research being conducted, and in the scope of the techniques being proposed. Although display algorithms are a critical component in the visualization process, they are not the only issue to consider. More and more, researchers see visualization as a path from data to understanding. From this perspective, two obvious questions arise, What should we do before we display the data? and What can we do after the user views the data? This article describes one possible system that starts with data management and continues through assisted visualization design, display, navigation, and user interaction.
