Project B - Datavisualisation Or Not?

Project B is fast approaching. I'm still doing research on my project and starting to think I have bitten off more than I can chew.

After doing to research on Data Visualisation there is a heap of tools that will help you create various methods of displaying your data. Do a Google search for datavisualisation tools and datavisualization tools.

Here are some examples:

Data Visualisation: Tools and Examples - Written by Matthew Solle

Googles TouchGraph - a Java application that reveals the network of connectivity between websites as reported by Google's database of related sites.

IBM's Manyeyes application to create datavisualisation

New York Times Visualization Lab - has a variety of examples that will inspire you

Processing is an open source programming language to program images, animation and interactions. It teaches you computer programming within a visual context.

Here are some examples of what can be achieve using Processing

Prefuse Visualization Toolkit - Prefuse is licensed under the terms of a BSD license, and can be freely used for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.

Examples of what you can do with Prefuse

I hope this has been helpful to your Univeristy of Canberra Networked Media Productions assignment Project B.
