Visualisation interactive de données temporelles: un aperçu de l'état de l'art

Abstract

Many visualization systems have been designed and developed to address the ever-growing mass of temporal data. The multiple aspects of time (linear vs cyclic, instant vs interval, different units etc.) have been represented in different manners in existing visualization systems. A design space is thus needed to analyse and compare different visual representations used in those systems. In this article we propose a framework to describe and analyze existing temporal visual representations with emphasis on three factors: time, data and user task.
