Visualization Activities

Overview

Massive amounts of data can currently be collected using a variety of different sensing technologies. As part of the Passways Project we are considering different ways of visualizing these data over both space and over time. We are working on the visualization tools required by analysts, coaches and players, and fans.

Some of these activities can legitimately be considered "research", but others are more appropriately thought of as "tool development".


 

Current and Past Activities

Animation Tools

We are developing a variety of tools that can be used to animate spatio-temporal movements of players and equipment. These tools help us: understand the models we are developing, understand the analyses we are conducting, and explain the results to others.

Graph-Theoretic and Computational Geometry Tools

When developing graph-theoretic and computational geometry algorithms it is often difficult to understand what is going on and/or localize and correct faults that arise. Hence, we are developing a variety of tools that help make this process easier.
