Features in Depth
Data visualization
The product renders multidimensional data as a graphical image allowing you to
focus on its visual characteristics rather than the tables of raw data. Our
visualization technology guarantees that the resulting image preserves all
information about the original data, so you can safely rely on the results
inferred from the visual analysis of your data samples. The application
supports all standard operations with images including rotation, moving,
stretching, as well as using various image viewing options like projection
views and "noise" filters.
Interactive image
You can interact with the image by zooming in or clicking in different areas
and focusing your attention on the actual observation or group of observations
that differ from the rest by a certain criteria. To help you identify
individual data records on the image the application presents a tooltip that
pops up whenever the mouse pointer is hovering over an area with one or more
observations.
Image assistant
The product comes with a set of helper windows that show the most relevant
information about your image and refer to the application features that can be
used to improve its look and feel.
Importing data from an external source
The application allows to import tabular data from an external text file or
database. A variety of data formats is natively supported including
delimiter-separated, CSV, fixed-width text files, Microsoft Access, SQL Server
and ODBC databases. The application provides an intuitive interface for
selecting a data source and previewing the results of import.
Creating data from scratch
You can also input all your data manually if the external data source does not
exist or not available.
Handling of missing data
The product has built-in support for automatic handling of missing values in
imported data.
Data editing
The application supports all kinds of data editing giving an opportunity to
"play" with the data and see how the changes affect its visual representation.
This way not only do you have the flexibility of building any data sample
within the application, but the image of this sample is automatically redrawn
in sync with your edits, showing how the data would look like in the various
"what if..." scenarios.
Multiple datasets
You can load and view data from several datasets. The application allows
picking a different color for each dataset, or render them all with a
predefined or custom color palette. By moving records from one dataset to
another you can visually sort them and form data clusters.
Statistical analysis
The application provides basic statistical information about each dataset. The
records that lie outside of the configured statistical bounds are highlighted
in red prompting for a more detailed investigation of the corresponding
observations
Flexible layout
The application is very flexible about where its visual elements can reside on
the screen. You are free to move them around, resize or hide away to get the
layout of the application window that is most convenient for you.
Ease of use
The intuitive user-friendly interface makes it easy to work with the data and
interpret visualization results. The explanatory messages and tips, as well as
shortcuts to the main application functions will shorten the learning curve and
help you start using the product right away.
