General Toolkits

  • InfoVis CyberInfrastructure This web site provides access to a comprehehsive set of software packages easing the exploration, modification, comparison, and extension of data mining and information visualization algorithms.
  • The InfoVis Toolkit The InfoVis Toolkit is a Interactive Graphics Toolkit written in Java to ease the development of Information Visualization applications and components.
  • processing Processing is a programming language and environment built for the electronic arts and visual design communities.
  • VisAD VisAD is a Java component library for interactive and collaborative visualization and analysis of numerical data. The name VisAD is an acronym for "Visualization for Algorithm Development"
  • Improvise Improvise is an information visualization system in which users build and browse multiview visualizations interactively using a simple shared-object coordination mechanism coupled with a flexible, expression-based visual abstraction language.
  • VisIt VisIt is a free interactive parallel visualization and graphical analysis tool for viewing scientific data on Unix and PC platforms (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, University of California).

Charting Toolkits

  • JFreeChart JFreeChart is a free Java class library for generating charts.
  • JOpenChart Free Java Toolkit and library for embedding charts into different kinds of applications.
  • Chart2D Java programming library for visualizing quantitative data using two-dimensional charts.
  • JSynoptic renders information graphically. It can be used as a simple graph plotter, or as a complex run-time monitoring environment.
  • JpGraph JpGraph is a Object-Oriented Graph creating library for PHP >= 4.3.1
  • The Rivet Visualization Environment Visualizing Complex Systems: The Rivet Project (Pat Hanrahan, Stanford University)

Graph/Network Toolkits

  • prefuse: an interactive visualization toolkit prefuse is a user interface toolkit for building highly interactive visualizations of structured and unstructured data. This includes any form of data that can be represented as a set of entities (or nodes) possibly connected by any number of relations (or edges).
  • GINY Graph INterface librarY Java Graphing Libraries.
  • JUNG - Java Universal Network/Graph Framework a software library that provides a common and extendible language for the modeling, analysis, and visualization of data that can be represented as a graph or network.
  • Wilmascope 3D graph visualisation system a Java3D application which creates real time 3d animations of dynamic graph structures.
  • Touchgraph TouchGraph provides a hands-on way to visualize networks of interrelated information. Networks are rendered as interactive graphs, which lend themselves to a variety of transformations.
  • GVF - The Graph Visualization Framework The Graph Visualization Framework is a set of Java 2 packages that can serve as a foundation for applications that either manipulate graph structures or visualize them.
  • JGraph Open Source Java Graph Visualization.
  • Walrus Graph Visualization Tool for interactively visualizing large directed graphs in three-dimensional space.

3D Toolkits

  • VTK Home Page The Visualization ToolKit (VTK) is an open source, freely available software system for 3D computer graphics, image processing, and visualization.
  • Hydra3D Hydra3D is a 3-dimensional XML visualization and editing tool for UNIX variants and Windows.

Geovisualization Toolkits

  • Exploratory Spatio-Temporal Analysis Toolkit ESTAT is an open-source geovisualization toolkit designed to provide coordinated maps, scatterplots, time series graphs, and parallel coordinate plots in an easy-to-use and dynamic interface.
  • GeoVIZ Toolkit The GeoVIZ Toolkit features on-the-fly addition of a wide variety of interactive geovisualization tools in an dynamically coordinated environment, allowing analysts to quickly construct visualizations that are customized to their specific needs.

Zoomable User Interface Toolkits

  • Zomit: A Zoomable User Interface Zomit is a generic package for developing zoomable user interfaces (ZUIs) that can aid in navigating large information spaces.
  • Piccolo Piccolo (formerly Jazz) is an open-source Java 2 toolkit from HCIL that supports the development of 2D structured graphics programs in general, and Zoomable User Interfaces (ZUIs) in particular.
