“…The task of navigation presents challenges such as supporting spatial awareness and providing efficient and comfortable movements between distant locations. Some systems enable users to navigate without constraint through the information space (Nagel et al (2008), Einsfeld et al (2006), Azzag et al (2005)). Other systems restrict movement in order to reduce possible user disorientation (Ahmed et al (2006)).…”

“…For example, in the system shown by Ogi et al (2009), the user can change the combination of presented data. Other systems have interaction techniques that allow users to move data items more freely in order to make the arrangement more suitable for their particular mental model (Einsfeld et al (2006)). Filter interaction techniques enable users to change the set of data items being presented on some specific conditions.…”

“…In this context, we are trying to develop new 3D visual representations to overcome some limitations of 2D representations. VR has already has been studied in different areas of VDM such as pre-processing (Nagel et al (2008), Ogi et al (2009)), classification (Einsfeld et al (2006)), and clustering (Ahmed et al (2006)). …”

“…Einsfeld, et al [EAD06] state that humans can intuitively interact with 3D environments and that these environments facilitate the perception of irregularities within large scale systems. This too is a persuasive argument to further investigate the possibilities of working with 3D spaces in information visualization, where the detection of abrupt changes and emerging trends is one of driving tasks at hand.…”

This paper presents some of the findings of an ongoing study conducted by an interdisciplinary team of computer scientists, artists and designers. It concerns the development of 3D user interfaces that aid the navigation and representation of large data structures through the usage of the HSV color space, and the ensuing "spatial frames". While data objects that have been colorized in various hues that carry equal saturation and brightness/transparency value seem to be equally foregrounded; varying saturation, brightness and transparency values add depth and hierarchy: Less saturated and/or darker, more transparent values recede into the background, while brighter, more highly saturated objects tend to become foregrounded. During our experiments we noticed that, when thus colorized, the edges connecting the nodes form visual spatial frames, which can result in the meaningful partitioning of 3D space. This property can be exploited to facilitate the display of overall trends within data sets, as well as to ease navigation, presenting overviews of the structure, and navigational help.
