Assessment Wall
Concept
Visual analytics research often produces powerful but complex interfaces to support information discovery and analysis. How can we simplify this discourse with information, making adoption easier and shortening the time to useful insights and productive analysis? The Assessment Wall is one such effort, designed to help users more easily monitor and explore continually updating text sources such as news or reports, through a high-resolution touch-screen interface. Our goals are to help users find the latest on topics known to be of interest along with emergent and unexpected themes. Additional interactivity allows discovery of relationships and patterns, all in context of the broader streaming data. Usability doesn’t have to come at the expense of power and insight.
Status
The current version of the Assessment Wall is available as part of IN-SPIRE.
