Visual Discovery Scenario - We’re going to now continue with this visual discovery scenario. The question would be maybe these people have given to you back in time and haven’t given recently, so maybe we should look at the giving history. I think that’s a great idea. To do that, we click on the giving history page. Now this page is actually tied to historical transactions. Every person who’s been a donor will have had a 100 or 1,000 transactions so this off of a different table, but it’s linked so the 1,567 people we have selected are now showing their gifts overtime from 1987 up to 2011. It’s actually a good story for this group, with many of them giving three million a year roughly in the mid-90s. It’s now up to the five, six million a year range. That’s good news for this group. You know that’s definitely a group worth taking a little deeper dive on. Let’s try to get a better feel for who they are and how they’re giving and whether or not they should get the more of our attention...

Visual Software - Make multi-dimensional charts even more information-rich thanks to new coloring, shape, and sizing options that, for instance, turn a 3D bubble chart into a 4D or 5D chart.

Use brushing techniques where by selecting data points in one chart highlights corresponding data points in accompanying charts.

Visualization Software - InetSoft CEO Luke Liang is interviewed about the company's innovations in visualization tools and the introduction of Web 2.0 and Flash technologies to business intelligence software. Luke Liang (CEO, InetSoft Technology): Yes. The Flash technology we began to use a couple of years ago in our ad hoc reporting tools on the enterprise reporting side, and we found that to be very flexible, and that is enables the delivery of desktop quality business intelligence applications. So we expanded the use of this interface. You can see how flexible it is. The analytic application looks like a spreadsheet. You can do a lot of the same things you can do on a spreadsheet, but it’s a Web application. It’s really amazing...

Visualizing Software - Visualizing software can capture data in any field, organize it, present it, and allow for thorough analysis. Data are the building blocks of any company. Data is seen in every field from bar codes in retail stores to users in online gaming. Know matter where you are gathering your data from, it is meaningless without a way to organize and present it. Visualizing software helps bring those boring rows and columns to life. You are able to more effectively ask and answer important questions such as "How much has our revenue increased over the last quarter," "What percentage of our customers are shopping online," and "What is driving growth?" This ability to answers these very important questions turns your data into a competitive advantage instead of an underutilized asset...
Visualization Techniques for Business Applications - Here is another question. Other than sales what other kind of business applications could you use that kind of visualization technique for? If we go back to this visualization, these kinds of problems occur in a variety of industries. We could give examples in health care where we’re doing a bunch of work on claims analysis outlier detection. We’re also doing a lot of work in clinical and financial analysis. In medical radiation oncology claims the issue there is you get a lot of data. One example is wait times, what is driving higher wait times. Another what would be referrals analysis on physician revenue. Who is bringing in the most referring revenue and which types of patients are they? And we’re doing work in financial services and retail banking on promotions and customer loyalty. We’re doing a bunch of work in human resources looking at teams of people and workforce skills and pay versus performance. Those kinds of things would be combinations of portfolio analysis and outlier detection. I could keep going, but I think that this kind of technology fits into all of these kinds of problems. These problems are generally departmental level. While an enterprise might doesn’t do this type of visual analysis, usually it’s the department that has the specific problem to solve...
Visualization Technology Demonstration - This kind of visualization technology is a lot like Tableau, isn’t it? Byron Igoe (BI): Well, we definitely read the same books. Essentially, the charting and visualization concepts are all based on the same data visualization work. Continuing the demo, notice how any of the customizations of the chart or the filtering can be saved as a bookmark. This only saves those customizations and settings, not the data. So whenever I open a bookmark, I am getting fresh data. Now I am just going to run through a few little example bookmarks that have already been saved here. Here are some flexible pie charts that also use the radius...
Visualization Tools - InetSoft CEO Luke Liang discusses the evolution of its reporting tools into visualization tools and the many applications of them, such as monitoring dashboards, analytic dashboards, and data exploration.
