- high-bandwidth hierarchical interaction
- parallel perceptual processing
- offload work from cognitive to perceptual system
- expanded working memory
- expanded storage of information
reduced search[edit | edit source]
- locality of processing
- high data density
- spatially-indexed addressing
enhanced recognition of patterns[edit | edit source]
- recognition instead of recall
- abstraction and aggregation

- value, relationship, trend
perceptual inference[edit | edit source]
- visual representations make some problems obvious

8 golden rules of info vis[edit | edit source]
large issues[edit | edit source]
choice of services, intended users, ease of learning, range of exploration, etc.
medium issues[edit | edit source]
use of color, window management, interaction techniques, choice of widgets, data quality, etc.
small issues[edit | edit source]
terminology, label placement, color, fonts, etc.
- categorical data
- provide appropriate high quality data for intended users
- simplify learning, prevent errors, enable shortcuts
- support exploration with proper widgets
- coordinate multiple windows
- strive for consistent terminology, color, fonts, etc.
- ensure label clarity, complete legends, full titles
