Multiresolution Terrain Database Visualization

Digital terrain visualization has received increasing research interest in recent years. One main problem focus has been the large size of terrain data, which needs to be stored on secondary storage hence causing a performance slow-down in terrain visualization. This paper surveys secondary storage terrain visualization techniques with a particular focus on spatial database systems supporting t...

Cross Database Visualization

One of the fundamental problems in computational biology is the diversity of data types and data sources. SRS is a widely used integration tool for these databases enabling powerful cross-database queries [1, 2, 3]. The mechanism used to enable cross-database searches can also be used to combine data from multiple entries to form a “view”. Combining data into structured objects via a CORBA inte...

Database Management for Data Visualization

Visualization management systems which integrate database management, data visualization, and graphical user-interface generation into one package are becoming essential tools for conducting science. Unfortunately, the link between data management and data visualization is not very well understood. To make matters worse, most database management systems available today are not well-suited for h...

Database Issues for Data Visualization: Supporting Interactive Database Explorartion

Incremental multidimensional scaling method for database visualization

A collection of entity descriptions may be conveniently represented by a set of tuples or a set of objects with appropriate attributes. The utility of relational and object databases is based on this premise. Methods of multivariate analysis can naturally be applied to such a representation. Multidimensional Scaling deserves particular attention because of its suitability for visualization. The...
