Interactive Knowledge Maps of Tools, Books, Researchers, Success Factors, and Methods in the Visualization Field

By clicking on a map or diagram thumbnail below, you can access an interactive graphic overview on tools, books, researchers in different visualization fields, as well as on key success factors of visualization. There is also an interactive organizing table that shows (incl. examples) one hundred visualization-based methods. Clicking on a particular tool, book, person, document, principle or method within a map opens the respective website or homepage in a new browser window or reveals an example (most maps were created with lets-focus).

Chris Wallace has implemented an XML page on which you can see and print the mouseover pictures individually. More information

 On another page by Chris you can group the visualization methods by your criteria and you can find background information for a specific visualization method via 'Google Images' and 'Wikipedia'.
