Visual Tools for Decision Making

27.04.2015 16:45 - 17:45

In this talk I will briefly give an introduction to the academic field of visualization and its principles.

I will highlight the power of visual supported analysis of computational simulations. I will first give a detailed example from our own work -- a tool for fisheries managers (Vismon). Based on an analysis of numerous other tools we have created as well as a review of 21 different application scenarios, I will make the case that visual support greatly facilitates the understanding of these complex systems leading to faster workflows and a better decision process. Some of the challenges to be tackled include the communication of uncertainty as well as the consideration of multiple objectives.
