Abstract

Multidimensional data sets can be visualized in a variety of forms provided by many techniques described in the literature. Depending on specific tasks, users might need to analyze the same data set using different representations. Moreover, they might need to interact with a view and have the results shown also in the others. This paper presents a system to provide multiple coordinated views of multidimensional data. It activates the coordination of techniques provided by InfoVis as well as visualizations we implemented using its basic resources. We allow users to set which visualizations they want to coordinate through a diagram representing the different visualizations. We present the user-driven coordination scheme and extensions we made in InfoVis to allow coordinated views through different interaction tools.
