Software demos

This page contains digital products developed by GeoVISTA members, including interactive demos of software products under development here. For complete information on GeoVISTA Studio, our core product, visit the Studio site.

NOTE: This material is provided "as is" and is not intended for commecial use. If you are having trouble viewing these demos, you may need to download the latest versions of Shockwave, Cosmo Player, or TCL plug-ins.

ColorBrewer

ColorBrewer helps creators of maps and other graphics select attractive color schemes appropriate to their data.

MapStats for Kids

Election Map 2000 prototype.
Paint the Map explores cartographic display of information.
Linked Representation Tool explores alternative ways to display geographic information.

Virtual Tours

Welcome to the Apoala Project with Alan MacEachren. (1.2MB Shockwave)
Goals of the Apoala Project with Donna Peuquet. (1.2MB Shockwave)
Tools for visualizing properties of spatial features with Mark Harrower. (2.5MB Shockwave)

Geovisualization

Our interactive parking application developed for Penn State allows users to explore parking-related information, query a parking dataset, and display an interactive map-based vector graphic as a result.
Uncertainty in Meterology Shockwave visualization system facilitates an understanding of, and comparison among, meteorological forecast models.
The EarthSystemsVisualizer allows high school and college students to explore climate datasets and incorporates innovative tools for exploring relationships in space and time.

HealthVis

Introductory animation to the HealthVis System - be sure to watch this before you download HealthVis! (200k gif)

HealthVis is a visualization system design to help scientists working with epidemeological data explore the data for new patterns or trends, either spatially and temporally.

Temporal Legends

The linear timeline widget is a TCL implementation of an interactive temporal legend.
The cyclical time wheel widget is another interactive temporal legend built in TCL.

Statistical Tools

The scatterplot matrix widget allows users to interact with a 2-D scatterplot and is a good example of the Exploratory Data Analysis technique called "brushing".

The dynamic parallel coordinate plot is a powerful interactive statistical tool, implemented in TCL, designed to show the relationships between multiple variables in large datasets.

Spatial Analyst - Monte Carlo simulation of spatial statistics is an easy to use software environment for exploring two dimensional point pattern analysis techniques, especially quadrat and K statistic techniques, and for applying these techniques to a variety of point patterns. This is a self-installing .exe file for Win 95/98/2K/NT (approx. 1MB) .

Lorenz 3D Attractor

A Java applet modeling thermally induced fluid convection in the atmosphere

VRML Worlds

A series of VRML worlds (.wrl files) is available that can be viewed in your web browser using the Cosmo player plug-in.
