CS491 - Visualization and Visual Analytics

This section contains the projects I worked on for the Visualization and Visual Analytics class, Fall 2009.

Project 1 - Bridge Over Troubled Water

For This project we had to create an interactive version of the John Snow cholera map, using additional related dynamic data. The tool used for developing the visualization is Processing.

Project 2 - Leaving on a Jet Plane

This project focuses on building a mini application for visualizing data of flights collected from O'Hare Airport Chicago. The data collected was over a period of one week and had numerous files which had be converted to some usable format.

Project 3 - Saturday Night at the Movies

For this project, we had to build an application to visualize data coming from the Internet Movie Database (IMDB). The application had to offer the user the possibility of visualizing and comparing the careers of multiple actors and directors, in a way similar to the NY Times Billboards Rankings. Data preprocessing was of extreme importance for this project, since the original IMDB text listings data had to be filtered and reorganized in order to bring it down to an acceptable size and easy-to-load format.

Project 4 - I Heard it Through The Grapevine

For this project, we had to build an application to visualize movie suggestions suing data coming from the NetFlix database. Data has to be shown as a force directed graph. Data also had to be cross linked to the the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) data, To get additional information about movies.

Final Project - Flow Visualization on Omega Desk

FlowViz is a generic 3D flow visualization for Omega Desk, a multitouch + stereo 3D display system developed at EVL. The application has been built using Processing, and has been designed to be easily portable to other devices offering a subset of the capabilities of Omega Desk, a stereo, multi touch display system prototype.
