This page was put together by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to showcase some interesting data visualization techniques. The lab has performed extensive research on data visualization as part of a program called IN-SPIRE (Spatial Paradigm for Information Retrieval and Exploration), and has published numerous papers on the subject. Here are some of the approaches shown:
-
Galaxies uses the image of stars in the night sky to represent a set of documents (see screenshot).
-
ThemeView represents the topics or themes within a set of documents as a relief map of natural terrain, whereby "mountains" indicate dominant themes (see screenshot).
-
ThemeRiver helps users identify time-related patterns, trends, and relationships across a large collection of documents (see screenshot).
-
Topic Islands applies wavelet transforms to a custom digital signal constructed from words within a document which can be used to generate fuzzy document outlines, summarizing text by levels of detail and according to user interests (see screenshot).

Hypercube allows an analyst to quickly locate information objects of particular interest in a predictable location, usually for more detailed analysis in another visualization tool (see screenshot).
CATCH (Computer Aided Tracking and Characterization of Homicides) is a collection of tools that assist the crime analyst in the investigation process (see screenshot).
Starlight integrates disparate, multiformat and multimedia information and data, and it then enables their concurrent analysis (see screenshot).
OmniViz was developed for handling large volumes of information relevant to the scientific and business needs of the life and chemical sciences industries (see screenshot).
