VRVis´ Interactive Visualisation research group received an "Honorable Mention" at the VIS 2022 VAST Challenge for its contribution "Comprehending City Economics from Heterogeneous Data".
IEEE VIS is the most important scientific forum for the fields of visualization and visual analytics. VIS 2022 brought together researchers from all over the world in Oklahoma, USA - a team from VRVis also contributed to the conference program, with several papers and presentations. In addition, the Interactive Visualisation research group was awarded an "Honorable Mention": Their solution for the VAST Challenge, "Comprehending City Economics from Heterogeneous Data", provided a clear presentation of scenarios and metrics.
The VAST Challenge 2022 consisted of complex urban data from a period of 15 months. This data represented the movement patterns of the city's population and included further information, e.g. income, shopping or restaurant visits. Data on local businesses was also part of the compilation. The VRVis Interactive Visualization group analyzed and evaluated the data using ComVis, our solution for coordinated multiple views. The researchers focused on the city´s economy in particular.
