Description
XmdvTool is a public-domain software package for the interactive visual exploration of multivariate data sets. It is available on all major UNIX/LINUX/MAC and Window platforms. XmdvTool is developed based on OpenGL and Tcl/Tk. It supports five methods for displaying flat form data and hierarchically clustered data:
1. Scatterplots
2. Star Glyphs
3. Parallel Coordinates
4. Dimensional Stacking
5. Pixel-oriented Display
XmdvTool also supports a variety of interaction modes and tools, including brushing in screen, data, and structure spaces, zooming, panning, and distortion techniques, and the masking and reordering of dimensions. Univariate display and graphical summarization, via tree-maps and modified Tukey box plots, are also supported. Finally, color themes and user customizable color assignments permit tailoring of the aesthetics to the users.
XmdvTool has been applied to a wide range of application areas, some of which are highlighted in our Case Studies. Some of these domains include remote sensing, financial, geochemical, census, and simulation data. We are always looking for new applications, so if you've had some success with the system in your domain, we'd love to hear from you.
