This model guides in translating the information need towards data of a specific domain into matching data types, suitable visualizations, and appropriate interactions. Considering that the course will present and discuss in detail fundamental and advanced information visualizations as well as suiting interactions for different kinds of data such as:
- Multidimensional/multivariate data
