Research & Development
The National Visualization and Analytics Center (NVAC™) is engaged in providing innovative and effective information visualization and analysis tools for early warning of terrorist activities, vulnerability assessments, and first responders. NVAC does this by conducting research in a broad range of topics. A partial list of ongoing research topics include:
- Large-scale graph perception
- Analytic discourse and scenario understanding
- Mobile visualization platforms
- Statistical and semantic information representations and transformations
- High dimensional information synthesis
- Visualization and interaction paradigms
- Temporal and spatial visual analytics
- Information packaging and dissemination
- Calibration and validation of information
- Collaboration technologies for distributed visual analytics
- Architectures for information-processing and visual analytics
Research and Development Agenda for Visual Analytics
Since the establishment of NVAC, a multidisciplinary panel representing government, academia and industry has developed a National Research & Development Agenda to define directions and priorities for future research and development for visual analytics tools.
The Research and Development Agenda for Visual Analytics book is available for download from this website.
“The important thing in science is not so much to obtain new facts as to discover new ways of thinking about them.”
