Visualization is the process of representing data, information, and knowledge in a visual form. This book covers the full spectrum of the field, including mathematical and analytic aspects, ranging from its foundations to human visual perception; from coded algorithms for different types of data, information and tasks to the design and evaluation of new visualization techniques. Sample programs are provided as starting points for the reader to build their own visualization tools. Numerous data sets highlight different application areas and allow readers to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of different visualization methods. Exercises, programming projects, and related readings accompany each chapter. The book concludes with an examination of several existing visualization systems and projections on the future of the field.
