The goal of a knowledge crystallization–process is to get the most compact description possible for a set of data relative to some task without removing information critical to its execution. Knowledge that is proven effective, useful, and objective is maintained — knowledge irrelevant in this case is removed.
The goal of a knowledge crystallization process is to get the most compact description possible for a set of data relative to some task.The authors affirm that information visualization can help most parts of knowledge crystallization.

Acquire information. Make sense of it. Create something new. Act on it.
