TimeVis - New book about "Visualization of Time-Oriented Data"

Submitted by Wolfgang Aigner on

Most of the data and information we are dealing with is related to time. Due to the distinct characteristics of dimension of time, appropriate visual and analytical methods are required to explore and analyze them. The new book "Visualization of Time-Oriented Data" (Springer, 2011) by Wolfgang Aigner, Silvia Miksch, Heidrun Schumann and Christian Tominski is devoted to a systematic view on this topic and the first of its kind. It is aimed at scientists as well as at practitioners seeking information on how their time-oriented data can best be visualized in order to gain valuable insights.
