Display Models for Visualization
نویسنده
چکیده
Models for visualization are important, helping the developer and user to understand the visualization process; to follow the connections and the data paths through the system; and to reference and compare the functionality and the limitations of different systems or techniques. Display models specifically classify the data by what type of output can be created. Jacques Bertin [2] described a symbolic reference model that he used to describe images and displays. In this paper we review his and other ‘display orientated models’ describing important aspects of these methods and ideas. We then translate Bertin’s scheme into an algebraic form as a method to describe visualizations.

VISUALIZING SCIENTIFIC COMPUTATIONS: A SYSTEM BASED ON LATTICE-STRUCTURED DATA AND DISPLAY MODELS by WILLIAM LOUIS HIBBARD
In this thesis we develop a system that makes scientific computations visible and enables physical scientists to perform visual experiments with their computations. Our approach is unique in the way it integrates visualization with a scientific programming language. Data objects of any user-defined data type can be displayed, and can be displayed in any way that satisfies broad analytic conditi...
متن کاملVisualization Display Models – ways to classify visual representations
Visualizations are generated of diverse data and use many different techniques and visual methods. It is often beneficial to evaluate what is being visualized and how the visualization is made-up. Such an analysis may aid the developer, to understand what ‘tools’ are available, and help the user to reference and compare different realizations. Display models specifically classify the data by wh...

متن کاملAugmenting 3D City Models with Visualization of Real-Time Meteorological Phenomena
General interest in visualizations of digital 3D city models is growing rapidly, and several applications are already available that display such models very realistically. Many authors have emphasized the importance of the effects of realistic illumination for computer generated images, and this applies especially to the context of 3D city visualization. However, current 3D city visualization ...
