Abstract

This paper explores the visualization techniques, design objectives, implementation trade-offs, and results of creating visualization tools for evaluating data from a space based sensor which is estimated to produce 8 Gigabytes of data a day for approximately 20 months. Effectiveness of visualization tools is evaluated in terms of data accessibility and user control over visual information. Visual presentation is also evaluated as a contributing factor to the perceived effectiveness and success of these tools.
