Annual Reports

Our mission:
Tools for Geographical Visualization (GeoViz) provide for different methods of geovisualization access and use. Different and innovative mapping systems have developed and products have been produced to show 2D, 2 1/2 D, 3D and 3D+time (4D), plus n-dimensional data elements. Recently there has been a digital convergence, and relatively inexpensive tools exist to develop and provide a plethora of (geo)information exploration devices. Tools and techniques are readily available, and methods need to be developed to deliver effective information consumption tools.

As technology has stabilized, there now exists a real need to explore not just how these tools can be best employed, but also the development of a new theory related to contemporary geographical visualization.

Terms of Reference:

  • Communication of spatial information 
  • Geovisualization (including the Web)
  • Novel methods and tools for uncertain data
