VISUALIZATION OF TIME-ORIENTED DATA - WOLFGANG ...

Time is an exceptional dimension that is common to many application domains such as medicine 
engineering  business  or science. Due to the distinct characteristics of time  appropriate
visual and analytical methods are required to explore and analyze them. This book starts with
an introduction to visualization and historical examples of visual representations. At its core
the book presents and discusses a systematic view of the visualization of time-oriented data
along three key questions: what is being visualized (data)  why something is visualized (user
tasks)  and how it is presented (visual representation). To support visual exploration 
interaction techniques and analytical methods are required that are discussed in separate
chapters. A large part of this book is devoted to a structured survey of 101 different
visualization techniques as a reference for scientists conducting related research as well as
for practitioners seeking information on how their time-oriented data can best be visualized.
