Technology Needs
Basic interaction techniques
To achieve successful adoption, visual analytics software must support both basic interactions and highly sophisticated interactions that support the analytic reasoning process. Before these more sophisticated interactions can be addressed systematically, work is needed to create a scientific understanding about the basic interactions that are used to support simpler operations. This understanding will form the foundation for research into more sophisticated interactions.
Recommendation 3.3
Create a new science of interaction to support visual analytics.
The grand challenge of interaction is to develop a taxonomy to describe the design space of interaction techniques that supports the science of analytical reason- ing. We must characterize this design space and identify under-explored areas that are relevant to visual analytics. Then, R&D should be focused on expanding the repertoire of interaction techniques that can fill those gaps in the design space.[Thomas and Cook, 2005]
