Science On a Sphere - SOS NOAA Science On a Sphere® (SOS) is a room sized, global display system that uses computers and video projectors to display planetary data onto a six foot diameter sphere, analogous to a giant animated globe. Researchers at NOAA developed Science On a Sphere® as an educational tool to help illustrate Earth System science to people of all ages. Animated images of atmospheric storms, climate change, and ocean temperature can be shown on the sphere, which is used to explain what are sometimes complex environmental processes, in a way that is simultaneously intuitive and captivating. Science On a Sphere® extends NOAA's educational program goals, which are designed to increase public understanding of the environment. Using NOAA's collective experience and knowledge of the Earth's land, oceans, and atmosphere, NOAA uses Science On a Sphere® as an instrument to enhance informal educational programs in science centers, universities, and museums across the country.
Chef d'Entreprise Magazine Beautiful web-based timeline software Atlantico XML/SWF Charts XML/SWF Charts is a simple, yet powerful tool to create attractive charts and graphs from XML data. Create an XML source to describe a chart, then pass it to this tool's flash file to generate the chart. The XML source can be prepared manually, or generated dynamically using any scripting language (PHP, ASP, CFML, Perl, etc.) XML/SWF Charts makes the best of both the XML and SWF worlds. Features: Quick generation of charts and graphs from static or dynamic data (any scripting language) Full updates and data streaming without reloading the web page. Testimonials I just wanted to pass along how well your script worked for our stock performance page. Good work! This is amazing software. Just want to thank you for this wonderful upgrade. I purchased your product a couple days ago and first had time to sit down and work with it this morning. Wow, you are the best! Thanks for your great script. I am very excited to have found your product on "hotcripts". You are freaking amazing. THIS ROCKS!

Los cinco incunables de la visualización de datos La marcha napoleónica de Charles Minard (1869) En junio de 1812, la Grande Armée de Napoleón cruzó el río Niemen en dirección a Moscú. No era una visita de cortesía. El Ejército más grande y mejor preparado del mundo invadía Rusia mientras las tropas del zar Alejandro I retrocedían dejando un sendero de humo y destrucción, su famosa táctica de tierra quemada. Cuando los franceses llegaron a Moscú, los generales rusos se habían marchado pero no sin antes prenderle fuego. De los 422.000 hombres que empezaron la campaña, sólo 100.000 llegaron a Moscú. Minard marca los descensos de temperatura y las batallas importantes, notas a pie de página que resultan especialmente dolorosas en la lenta fuga del ejército que da la vuelta -ya en negro como la sangre seca- y que se va diezmando dramáticamente, víctima del hambre, las enfermedades, el general invierno y el comandante Kutúzov.

AFP A Carefully Selected List of Recommended Tools on Datavisualization When I meet with people and talk about our work, I get asked a lot what technology we use to create interactive and dynamic data visualizations. At Interactive Things, we have a set of preferred libraries, applications and services that we use regularly in our work. We will select the most fitting tool for the job depending on the requirements of the project. That’s why we have put together a selection of tools that we use the most and that we enjoy working with. Let me answer the most likely questions right away: No, not everything find its’ way into this list, so you might not find your personal favorite.
