ABSTRACT
Interactive data visualization plays a crucial role in the interpretability of large datasets. Virtual reality offers unique advantages in exploring data, beyond traditional 2-D views. This article presents a set of interaction artifacts designed for analyzing and interpreting complex datasets through immersive 3-D graph visualization and interaction. Our system makes complex datasets easier to work with by offering a wide range of visual customization tools and intuitive methods for selection, manipulation, and filtering. It also provides a cross-platform, collaborative environment that can be accessed by remote users through traditional computers, drawing tablets, and touchscreen devices.
ABSTRACT
Effective presentation of data is critical to a users understanding of it. In this manuscript, we explore research challenges associated with presenting large geospatial datasets through a multimodal experience. We also suggest an interaction schema that enhances users cognition of geographic information through a user-driven display that visualizes and sonifies geospatial data.
