DataWear: Revealing Trends Of Dynamic Data In Visualizations
Chris L. North, Umer Farooq, Dilshad Akhter · 2001
Data Wear enables the visualization of trends of change in dynamic data in a visualization without sacrificing a visual axis to represent time. Data Wear represents data changes, and hence changes in the visualization of the current state of data, as wear marks in the visualization background. Worn paths represent common changes in data, and fading represents recentness of changes. The Data Wear concept is demonstrated with a scatterplot visualization tool showing dynamic stock market data.
