Abstract
We present a new framework for metadata visualisation systems called VisMeB (visual metadata browser). It is based upon redesign ideas from the IN-SYDER system that were come under extensive evaluations. The aim of our approach is to improve the process of finding relevant information in an intuitive yet multifunctional way. We use a ScatterPlot in combination with a so called SuperTable for visualisation. The two techniques are tightly coupled and present unique possibilities of interaction through the use of visual filters.
