Abstract :
The paper presents an interactive approach for guiding the user´s select of colormaps in visualization. PRAVDAColor, implemented as a module in the IBM Visualization Data Explorer, provides the user a selection of appropriate colormaps given the data type and spatial frequency, the user´s task, and properties of the human perceptual system
