Of the many types of maps, thematic maps perform an important function due to the wide possibilities of adapting their content to current needs. The limitation of classic maps is their two-dimensional nature. In the era of rapidly growing methods of mass acquisition of spatial data, the use of flat images is often not enough to reveal the level of complexity of certain objects. In this case, it is necessary to use visualization in three-dimensional space. The motivation to conduct the study was the use of cartographic projections methods, spatial transformations, and the possibilities offered by thematic maps to create thematic three-dimensional map imaging (T3DMI). The authors presented a practical verification of the adopted methodology to create a T3DMI visualization of Citation: Dabrowski, P.S.; Specht, C.; Specht, M.; Makar, A. the marina of the National Sailing Centre of the Gda´nskUniversity of Physical Education and Sport Three-Dimensional Thematic Map (Poland).

    Course Title: Principles of Scientific Visualization Course Number: 9400110 Course Credit: 1 Course Description: This course provides students with instruction in the evolution and underlying principles of scientific visualization, including two-dimensional representation of scientific and other forms of data. Included in the content is the use of color and other graphical elements such as vector and bitmap images in different presentation techniques. Students will also learn about the use of charts and graphs in representing data and the software tools used to produce them. The ultimate output of this course is a design portfolio created by the student from a scenario. The portfolio should include a narrative description of the scenario, the approach to data collection, resulting charts and graphs, and an interpretation of each chart/graph. Research references should be cited appropriately. Consideration should be given to having students produce the portfolio using presentation software. CTE Standards and Benchmarks NGSSS-Sci 28.0 Describe scientific & technical visualization. – The student will be able to: 28.01 Define scientific and technical visualization and provide examples of each. 28.02 Explain the importance of scientific visualization and its applicability to various industries. 28.03 Provide examples of 2-D and 3D rendered visualizations. 29.0 Describe the historical significance of scientific & technical visualization. – The student will be able to: 29.01 Describe the evolution of drawings from cave through perspective drawings to photography, television, and the Internet. 29.02 Define and describe the elements contained on various types of maps (e.g., road, topographic, aeronautical, weather, concept, and gene).

  • Members | Diagnostic Imaging Tests
    Types of Diagnostic Imaging Tests There are several types of diagnostic imaging tests. Each type is used based on what the provider is looking for. Radiography: A quick, painless test that takes a picture of the inside of your body. These tests are also known as X-rays and mammograms. This test uses low doses of radiation. Fluoroscopy: Uses many X-ray images that are shown on a screen. It is like an X-ray “movie.” To make images clear, providers use a contrast agent (dye) that is put into your body. These tests can result in high doses of radiation. This often happens during procedures that take a long time (such as placing stents or other devices inside your body). Tests include: Barium X-rays and enemas Cardiac catheterization Upper GI endoscopy Angiogram Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA): Use magnets and radio waves to create pictures of your body. An MRA is a type of MRI that looks at blood vessels. Neither an MRI nor an MRA uses radiation, so there is no exposure. Ultrasound: Uses sound waves to make pictures of the inside of your body. This test does not use radiation, so there is no exposure. Computed Tomography (CT) Scan: Uses a detector that moves around your body and records many X- ray images. A computer then builds pictures or “slices” of organs and tissues. A CT scan uses more radiation than other imaging tests. A CT scan is often used to answer, “What does it look like?” Nuclear Medicine Imaging: Uses a radioactive tracer to produce pictures of your body.

  • NPR in Scientific Visualization
    NPR Techniques for Scientific Visualization NPR Techniques for Scientific Visualization Victoria Interrante University of Minnesota 1 Introduction Visualization research is concerned with the design, implementation and evaluation of novel methods for effectively communicating information through images. For example: How do we determine how to portray a complicated set of data so that its essential information can be easily and accurately perceived and understood? How can we measure the success of our efforts? Where should we look for insight into the science behind the art of effective visual representation? For many years, photorealism was the gold standard, and the goal in visualization was to achieve renderings of scientific data that were as nearly indistinguishable as possible from a photograph. However in recent years, there has been an upsurge of interest in using non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) techniques in scientific visualization. What does NPR offer to visualization applications? What are some of the important research issues in developing NPR techniques for data visualization? What are the recent advances in this area? My presentation in this half-day course will attempt to survey these topics, beginning with a discussion of the motivation for using NPR in scientific visualization and continuing through an overview of recent research in the development and assessment of NPR techniques for visualization applications. 2 Motivation and Background Historical examples of the use of ‘non-photorealistic rendering’ techniques in scientific visualization can be found in the hand-drawn illustrations from scores of textbooks across multiple fields in the sciences [Loe64][Law71][Zwe61][Rid38]. The universal goal in such illustrations was to clarify the subject by emphasizing its most important or significant features, while de-emphasizing extraneous details [Hod89].

Scientific visualization, sometimes referred to in shorthand as SciVis, is the representation of data graphically as a means of gaining understanding and insight into the data. It is sometimes referred to as visual data analysis. This allows the researcher to gain insight into the system that is studied in ways previously impossible. Department of Computer Science and Engineering 0-4 0 Introduction What it is not It is important to differentiate between scientific visualization and presentation graphics. Presentation graphics is primarily concerned with the communication of information and results in ways that are easily understood. In scientific visualization, we seek to understand the data. However, often the two methods are intertwined. Department of Computer Science and Engineering 0-5 0 Introduction What is Scientific Visualization?
