  • Inviwo — a Visualization System with Usage Abstraction Levels
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON VISUALIZATION AND COMPUTER GRAPHICS, VOL X, NO. Y, MAY 2019 1 Inviwo — A Visualization System with Usage Abstraction Levels Daniel Jonsson,¨ Peter Steneteg, Erik Sunden,´ Rickard Englund, Sathish Kottravel, Martin Falk, Member, IEEE, Anders Ynnerman, Ingrid Hotz, and Timo Ropinski Member, IEEE, Abstract—The complexity of today’s visualization applications demands specific visualization systems tailored for the development of these applications. Frequently, such systems utilize levels of abstraction to improve the application development process, for instance by providing a data flow network editor. Unfortunately, these abstractions result in several issues, which need to be circumvented through an abstraction-centered system design. Often, a high level of abstraction hides low level details, which makes it difficult to directly access the underlying computing platform, which would be important to achieve an optimal performance. Therefore, we propose a layer structure developed for modern and sustainable visualization systems allowing developers to interact with all contained abstraction levels. We refer to this interaction capabilities as usage abstraction levels, since we target application developers with various levels of experience. We formulate the requirements for such a system, derive the desired architecture, and present how the concepts have been exemplary realized within the Inviwo visualization system. Furthermore, we address several specific challenges that arise during the realization of such a layered architecture, such as communication between different computing platforms, performance centered encapsulation, as well as layer-independent development by supporting cross layer documentation and debugging capabilities. Index Terms—Visualization systems, data visualization, visual analytics, data analysis, computer graphics, image processing. F 1 INTRODUCTION The field of visualization is maturing, and a shift can be employing different layers of abstraction.

  • The New Plot to Hijack GIS and Mapping
    The New Plot to Hijack GIS and Mapping A bill recently introduced in the U.S. Senate could effectively exclude everyone but licensed architects, engineers, and surveyors from federal government contracts for GIS and mapping services of all kinds – not just those services traditionally provided by surveyors. The Geospatial Data Act (GDA) of 2017 (S.1253) would set up a system of exclusionary procurement that would prevent most companies and organizations in the dynamic and rapidly growing GIS and mapping sector from receiving federal contracts for a very-wide range of activities, including GPS field data collection, GIS, internet mapping, geospatial analysis, location based services, remote sensing, academic research involving maps, and digital or manual map making or cartography of almost any type. Not only would this bill limit competition, innovation and free-market approaches for a crucial high-growth information technology (IT) sector of the U.S. economy, it also would cripple the current vibrant GIS industry and damage U.S. geographic information science, research capacity, and competitiveness. The proposed bill would also shackle government agencies, all of which depend upon the productivity, talent, scientific and technical skills, and the creativity and innovation that characterize the vast majority of the existing GIS and mapping workforce. The GDA bill focuses on a 1972 federal procurement law called the Brooks Act that reasonably limits federal contracts for specific, traditional architectural and engineering services to licensed A&E firms. We have no problem with that. However, if S.1253 were enacted, the purpose of the Brooks Act would be radically altered and its scope dramatically expanded by also including all mapping and GIS services as “A&E services” which would henceforth would be required to be procured under the exclusionary Brooks Act (accessible only to A&E firms) to the great detriment of the huge existing GIS IT sector and all other related companies and organizations which have long been engaged in cutting-edge GIS and mapping.

In the past an infographic was the result of a long and painful process between designers and statisticians involving numerous meetings, data management and testing of designs and colour schemes. Nowadays they are much simpler to create. In fact, the company infogr.am has created a website that simplifies this process so that anyone can do it. The guidance below outlines a few simple instructions on how to use infogr.am to create the types of graphs discussed in this course. We will be using the data from the ‘Rainfall data PDF’. You should download the PDF before you start. Remember, you do not need to plot all the graph types or all the data. Simply pick two countries and compare their rainfall. This is a basic guide to Infogr.am; the site can do much more than what we describe below, so have a play and see what you find out! 1. Go to https://infogr.am/. 2.

  • 1 Narrative Mapping by Stephen Mamber UCLA Dept. of Film
    1 Narrative Mapping By Stephen Mamber UCLA Dept. of Film, Television, and Digital Media This appeared (in a slightly different version) in: Anna Everett and John Caldwell (eds.), New Media: Theories and Practices of Intertextuality, Routledge, 2003, pp. 145-158. Illustrations appear at the end. I want to attempt to link up a variety of areas of creative endeavor which I believe have a common goal. As I don't think these strands have yet been pulled together and given a name, I want to try to do so here. This is also valuable to do because digital media bring out the possibilities for further work here like never before, especially for suggesting new interface possibilities. I would call this activity "narrative mapping" and give it a simple and broad definition: an attempt to represent visually events which unfold over time. This would be mapping (rather than just presenting a picture), because space, time, and perhaps other components of the events would be accounted for. A visual information space is constructed that provides a formulation of complex activities. These mappings may be of real or fictional narratives, but my own feeling would be that the latter presents the greatest challenges, because mapping becomes a form of critical visualisation. ("Critical Visualisation" might be a useful alternative term to "Narrative Mapping".) Take virtually any great work of literature or film and try to ask yourself: what would a mapping of this work look like? While both the fictional and the real can be mapped, it's useful to distinguish between the two to consider possible differences between mapping strategies.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 400 859 IR 056 174 AUTHOR Ranson, Clare TITLE Cartography in Children's Literature. PUB DATE 96 NOTE 4p.; In: Sustaining the Vision. Selected Papers from the Annual Conference of the International Association of School Librarianship (24th, Worcester, England, July 17-21, 1995); see IR 056 149. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) Speeches /Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MFO1 /PCO1 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Cartography; *Childrens Literature; Fantasy; Fiction; Foreign Countries; Graphic Arts; *Illustrations; Locational Skills (Social Studies); *Maps; Map Skills; Visual Aids ABSTRACT Maps have been used as an illustrative device in children's books for a long time; however, they are an area of illustration that has been largely ignored by critics. Maps are most commonly used as frontispiece illustrations in adventure and fantasy books. They have also generally been aimed at the male reader when children's books were marketed separately for boys and girls. A good map will complement the text and internal illustrations and add another visual level to the text. Children are now less skilled in cartographic recognition, due to geography being taught differently than it was in the past. Maps in children's books can be divided into three groups: (1) maps which depict a real place; (2) fantasy maps which have no basis in reality and are the creation of the author and cartographer; and (3) maps which combine both reality and fantasy--when the map shows an area that is real but has been altered to fit the plot. Maps in selected children's books are described and discussed to show how maps are a branch of illustration worthy of critical attention.
