Each perspective is further divided into four principal categories that group common map‐like techniques along the visual primitives they affect. In this paper, we give an overview of the literature on map‐like visualization and provide a hierarchical classification of existing techniques along two general perspectives: imitation and schematization of cartographic maps.
Moreover, choosing the right technique to support a particular visualization task is further complicated, as techniques are scattered across different domains, with each considering different characteristics as map‐like. The Babylonians had a system with a base of. However, the field of map‐like visualization is vast and currently lacks a clear classification of the existing techniques. examine both of these systems and compare them with the Hindu-Arabic System we use. In visualization, the term map‐like describes techniques that incorporate characteristics of cartographic maps in their representation of abstract data. The results show that interactive timeslicing brings benefit when comparing distant points in time, but less benefits when analyzing contiguous intervals of time.Ĭartographic maps have been shown to provide cognitive benefits when interpreting data in relation to a geographic location. Participants completed 24 trials of three tasks with all techniques. Here is the Babylonian example of 2,27 squared Perhaps the scribe left a little more space than usual between the 6 and the 9 than he would have done had he been representing 6,9. The tasks were performed on a large display through a touch interface. In sexagesimal 147 2,27 and squaring gives the number 21609 6,0 9.

We present the results of a series of laboratory experiments comparing two traditional approaches (small multiples and interactive animation), with a more recent approach based on interactive timeslicing. Since these tasks are key for understanding the dynamic aspects of the network, understanding which interactive visualizations best support these tasks is important. Although it is straightforward to provide interfaces for visualization that represent multiple states of the network (i.e., multiple timeslices) either simultaneously (e.g., through small multiples) or interactively (e.g., through interactive animation), these interfaces might not support tasks in which disjoint timeslices need to be compared. Dynamic networks can be challenging to analyze visually, especially if they span a large time range during which new nodes and edges can appear and disappear. The digits 0 to 9, and the numbering system based on them, are often called Arabic Numerals but this is not correct.
