			Shneiderman, B.	The eyes have it: a task by data type taxonomy for information read more Abstract: A useful starting point for designing advanced graphical user interfaces is the visual information seeking Mantra: overview first, zoom and filter, then details on demand. But this is only a starting point in trying to understand the rich and varied set of information visualizations that have been proposed in recent years. The paper offers a task by data type taxonomy with seven data types (one, two, three dimensional data, temporal and multi dimensional data, and tree and network data) and seven tasks (overview, zoom, filter, details-on-demand, relate, history, and extracts) Visualization Taxonomy; data visualisation; graphical user interfaces; visual programming; advanced graphical user interface design; data type taxonomy; information visualizations; multi dimensional data; network data; visual information seeking; Checkout More Details \| Available Online	1996

			Springmeyer, Rebecca R.	A characterization of the scientific data analysis process read more Abstract: Extensible scientific visualization tools are often offered as data analysis tools. While images may be the goal of visualization, insight is the goal of analysis. Visualization tools often fail to reflect this fact both in functionality and in their user interfaces, which typically focus on graphics and programming concepts rather than on concepts more meaningful to end-user scientists. This paper presents a characterization which shows how data visualization fits into the broader process of scientific data analysis. We conducted an empirical study, observing scientists from several disciplines while they analyzed their own data. Examination of the observations exposed process elements outside conventional image viewing. For example, analysts queried for quantitative information, made a variety of comparisons, applied math, managed data, and kept records. The characterization of scientific data analysis reveals activity beyond that traditionally supported by computer. It offers an understanding which has the potential to be applied to many future designs, and suggests specific recommendations for improving the support of this important aspect of scientific computing Visualization Taxonomy; data visualisation; data visualization; data analysis; image viewing; quantitative information; scientific computing; scientific data analysis process; Checkout More Details \| Available Online	1992
