Synthesizing Geovisual Analytic Results
نویسنده
چکیده
Single analytical results are rarely “magic bullets.” To complete most analytical tasks, analysts must combine results from multiple tools derived from heterogeneous data over a significant period of time. Current visual analytics tools do not offer much in the way of dedicated tools for this activity – a portion of the analytical process called synthesis. Moreover, we know little about the ways analysts currently accomplish this task. Here we describe a research project in progress intended to characterize and design interfaces for results synthesis in geovisual analytic tools.

متن کاملSynthesizing Results in Geovisualization
The transition from geovisual analysis to presentation involves an intermediate stage called synthesis. In this stage of analysis, analysts collect and combine results to generalize their discoveries. Despite its presence in most theories of geovisualization design, synthesis is a topic that has remained largely unexplored in geovisualization research. This paper examines the use of synthesis i...
متن کاملGeovisual analytics to enhance spatial scan statistic interpretation: an analysis of U.S. cervical cancer mortality
BACKGROUND Kulldorff's spatial scan statistic and its software implementation - SaTScan - are widely used for detecting and evaluating geographic clusters. However, two issues make using the method and interpreting its results non-trivial: (1) the method lacks cartographic support for understanding the clusters in geographic context and (2) results from the method are sensitive to parameter cho...

The world has become a complex set of geo-social systems interconnected by networks, including transportation networks, telecommunications, and the internet. Understanding the interactions between spatial and social relationships within such geo-social systems is a challenge. This research aims to address this challenge through the framework of geovisual analytics. We present the GeoSocialApp w...
متن کاملConsidering Visual Perception and Cognition in the Analysis of Remotely Sensed Images
The physiological effects of insect infestations on forests can be examined through the use of aerial and satellite images. However, in some cases, visual identification is difficult. The goal of this research is to understand the role of cognitive reasoning and visual perception in the analysis of multi-spectral satellite images for forest management. From that knowledge, we will implement geo...
