Visualization of Global Military Spending
image

In this visualization each country is represented by a circle that shows the amount of money spent on the military (size of circle) and what fraction of the country's earnings that uses (colour). In this graphic the data is presented as ellipses on a cylindrical projection. The countries are not named, and the scaling is slightly different, but once you see africa (central collection of small dots) the layout is clear. The usa dominates the upper/left third of the map.

All of Inflation’s Little Parts
image

This is a New York Times data visualization of all of the categories and prices that make up the U.S. Governments inflation numbers. As they say, "Each month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics gathers 84,000 prices in about 200 categories -- like gasoline, bananas, dresses and garbage collection -- to form the Consumer Price Index, one measure of inflation." I found some very compelling data here. Such as the high price of oil is a large factor in rising food prices. The page is worth checking out.

TweetWheel - Twitter Social Graph
image

The idea of the the social graph was written about by Brad Fitzpatrick where he defined it as "the global mapping of everybody and how they're related". This is what TweetWheel does for Twitter. It shows you all of your friends and how they're connected to each other. The load is a bit slow, however, it's worth the wait. Nice job to the developers.

Glossary Visualization V3 by Moritz Stefaner
image

Another great visualization example by Moritz. This is basically an interactive network graph that was made for the EU project MACE, for visualizing expert vocabulary for metatagging architectural contents. "The vocabulary contains more than 2000 terms, organized hierarchically in a number of facets and fields." The examples were created using the flare visualization toolkit and the NodeLinkTreeLayout algorithm. There are currently four examples on his website.

Graphviz - Graph Visualization Software
image

"Graph visualization is a way of representing structural information as diagrams of abstract graphs and networks. Automatic graph drawing has many important applications in software engineering, database and web design, networking, and in visual interfaces for many other domains. Graphviz is open source graph visualization software. It has several main graph layout programs. See the gallery for some sample layouts. It also has web and interactive graphical interfaces, and auxiliary tools, libraries, and language bindings."

Medical Image Processing and Visualization
image

MeVisLab, the successor of the image processing environment ILAB4, represents a platform for image processing research and development with a focus on medical imaging. It allows fast integration and testing of new algorithms and the development of application prototypes that can be used in clinical environments. Beside general image processing algorithms and visualization tools, MeVisLab includes advanced medical imaging modules for segmentation, registration, volumetry, and quantitative morphological and functional analysis. MeVisLab has been developed by the MeVis Research GmbH in Bremen, Germany. Based on MeVisLab, several clinical prototypes have been realized, including software assistants for neuro-imaging, dynamic image analysis, surgery planning, and vessel analysis.

Schemaball - SQL Schema Visualizer
image

Schemaball is a flexible schema visualizer for SQL databases. The purpose of Schemaball is to help visualize the relationships between tables. Tables are related by foreign keys, which are fields which store the value of a record field from another table. Foreign keys create a lookup relationship between two tables. Large schemas can have hundreds of tables and table relationships. Keeping track of them call can be tedious, error-prone and slow down the schema development process. Schemaball provides a means to create flexible, static graphic images of a schema. Tables and table links can be hidden, highlighted and foreign key relationships can be traversed forward or backward to highlight connected tables.

(suit)men - Stats Visualization
image

I normally don't post entertainment or portfolio sites, however, (suit)men will mark a change in that policy. (suit)men is a digital global entertainment company founded in Japan. Their website is flashed based and features a background visualization of their live website stats. The visualization is powered by Google, and you can see a full screen view by clicking on the black button in the lower left hand side of the website. Very impressive work.
