Drawing Data on Maps: Sketch-Based Spatiotemporal Visualization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spatial data is frequently used in urban planning contexts to support decision-making. This data can be used to plan routes through the city for public transportation or to designate zones for planning new businesses and residences. Unfortunately, few tools exist that allow non-programmers to rapidly utilize spatial data to create such plans. In this poster, we present SpaceSketch, a tool for rapidly constructing map-based visualizations using spatial data. SpaceSketch utilizes a sketch-based approach to visualization specification in which hand-drawn trajectories and regions are encoded using a user-specified model. Using SpaceSketch, map-based plans can be rapidly constructed, compared, and altered on a multitouch canvas.

Spatiotemporal Knowledge Visualization and Discovery in Dynamic Social Networks
In this paper, we introduce a so-called DyVT tool (Dynamic social network Visualization Tool) to support spatiotemporal knowledge visualization and discovery in dynamic social networks. The dynamic aspects of social networks refer to contextualized information such as spatial, temporal as well as users’ personalized information. We also define an XML-based target language incorporating emerging...

This paper presents Drawing with the Flow, a sketch-based interface for illustrating 2D vector fields. Drawing with the Flow explores the problem of making scientific visualization tools accessible to artists and illustrators, who have a finely tuned visual design sense, but do not typically have the programming or mathematical background required to work with modern visualization algorithms an...
متن کاملA Toolkit to Support Dynamic Social Network Visualization
In this paper we introduce the design, implementation and evaluation of the Dynamic Visualization Toolkit (DyVT) to support complex dynamic social network visualization. Dynamic aspects of social networks such as spatiotemporal as well as personalized information can be visualized in a common toolkit. To that end, an XML-based target language DyVTML is an extension of existing schemata enabling...
متن کاملGeneric Sketch-Based Retrieval Learned without Drawing a Single Sketch
We cast the sketch-based retrieval as edge-map matching. A shared convolutional network is trained to extract descriptors from edge maps and sketches, which are treated as a special case of edge maps. The network is fine-tuned solely from edge maps of landmark images. The training images are acquired in a fully unsupervised manner from 3D landmark models obtained by an automated structurefrom-m...
متن کاملSketch-Driven Orthogonal Graph Drawing
We present an orthogonal graph drawing algorithm that uses a sketchy drawing of the graph as input. While the algorithm produces an orthogonal drawing with few bends in the Kandinsky model it also preserves the general appearance of the sketch. Potential applications for this kind of drawing algorithm include the generation of schematic maps from geographic networks and interactive orthogonal g...
