Contest Entry Visualization System

Describe in less than 200 words the visualization system(s) used and where, when, and by whom it was developed. Links for more information about the tool can be provided here, but the description on this page should be sufficient for evaluation.

Criterion 1: Interactivity

In 200 words or less, describe the interactive performance of your visualization systems. Describe the performance for each mode/display type in your system if there are multiple systems. Be sure to include statistics such as your machine hardware (vendor, processor speed, memory, graphics acceleration, etc.), generated image size, color depth, etc. that would affect performance. Include information such as the fact that only a subset of the data was considered or that a subsampled version of the data was considered if that would change performance. If only static visualizations were generated, discuss the time to generate them in addition to the performance characteristics such as machine type, use of subsampled data, etc.

This criterion will be chiefly evaluated based upon the video supported by the statistics mentioned here.

Criterion 2: Exploratory Support

In 200 words or less, describe the exploratory support your system provides. Discuss what parameters are used to manipulate the visualization, and how the user interacts with them. Also discuss any advanced forms of interaction/exploratory support. Screenshots of the parameter interfaces may be included here: use a thumbnail version on the web page that links to a larger version (no larger than 1280x800).

This criterion will be evaluated based upon demonstration in the video and by the description given here.

Criterion 3: Multiple Characteristics

Visualization Performed 1

For each major type of visualization performed, discuss the method used to generate the visualization, to the process needed/followed to generate the result, and what insights are gained from that visualization. Provide a screen shot for each visualization performed (use a thumbnail on the web page linked to an image no larger than 1280x800). Specific examples of visualizations include hurricane structure, rainfall, wind, temperature, etc. Examples demonstrating how multiple of these characteristics were displayed at once will be judged higher than separate presentations assuming equal techniques.

Evaluation of the level of visualization fusion will be based upon the examples presented on the web page. Demonstrations in the video will assist in this evaluation.

Visualization Performed 2

Include one of these sections for each combination of visualizations performed (up to 5 total).

Additional Comments

List additional comments about the entry and the systems capabilities and limitations. Be brief to assist the reviewers with evaluation. Examples of things to discuss here are particular challenges faced and unique capabilities.
