ABSTRACT:
Visual analysis is a powerful method for analyzing data. A major stumbling block to widespread adoption is that most people are not trained in the graphical design principles needed to construct graphical presentations that support their reasoning process or communicate their analytical results to others. Users need visual analysis systems that automatically present data using the best practices of graphic design.

Read this white paper to learn best practices for graphic design and visual analysis as well as how you can create a smooth user experience where users can concentrate on their task. Eliminate disruptions and realize enhancement during the flow of visual analysis. Learn more about automatic presentation functionality and how it has been incorporated into a visual analysis system.
