Synthesizing Geovisual Analytic Results
Anthony C. Robinson · 2007
Single analytical results are rarely magic bullets. To complete most analytical tasks, analysts must combine results from multiple tools derived from heterogeneous data over a significant period of time. Current visual analytics tools do not offer much in the way of dedicated tools for this activity - a portion of the analytical process called synthesis. Moreover, we know little about the ways analysts currently accomplish this task. Here we describe a research project in progress intended to characterize and design interfaces for results synthesis in geovisual analytic tools.
