Visual and textual dataset exploration

ExploraTool is a tool to visually and textually explore, filter and select data within simulation repositories. The tool groups items together by their main attribute values. Groups are represented as nested ellipses. Drill-down and rollup operations are provided. In this paper, we extend by adding a textual based search facility that updates the visualisation, allowing at same time textual and visual queries. ExploraTool´s features, challenges to face and future work have been discussed.
