The information visualization based on the sensor network: the survey

—In this survey project, the data visualization and information visualization in the sensor network are the main topics. Base on the literature review in related topics, this project report will summarize some of the encoding methods with the framework they proposed. The main section of this paper will be separated into three sections: visualization in properties and problems on sensor network, visualization in healthcare, tracking and position in indoor environment, visualization for environmental sensing and monitoring in city or region-scale. For each example for selected papers, “what” “why” “how” will be analyzed as well as the scale of each application. These analyses will be presented as a table and followed by the explanation. The evaluation of encoding methods and idioms which have been used in each example will be provided in the result section. The evaluations for different application scales will be provided in discussion section as well as the future work of this survey project. In the summary section, the works and contributions of this survey project will be illustrated.
