Abstract :
Current visualization tools are capable but still require too much visualization knowledge on the user´s part. This requirement restricts the user in what is possible. Nor do the tools take account of what is known regarding cognition and perception. The authors focus at on three things: presentation of information to best match human cognitive and perceptual capabilities, interactive tools and systems to facilitate creation and navigation of visualizations, and software system features to improve visualization tools.<>
