What’s 3D Data Viz?

3D data visualization is a computer program that creates a visual representation of data in 3D, which can be static or dynamic. It can access local information but web information may be limited. 3D creates more visually striking representations and dynamic views update automatically.

Three-dimensional (3D) data visualization refers to a computer program or other technology that allows users to see a visual representation, static or animated, of the data on their computer. For most 3D data visualization programs, users are able to view any local information, but web information may be limited. Unlike other visualization programs, 3D data visualization is meant to be in 3D which makes it visually different from the other types. The information in the visualization can be static or dynamic.

The reason for 3D data visualization is to create a visual representation of information on a computer. This representation can be very simple, such as a line graph representing the number of files on a computer, or it can be a complex network of nodes and information that interconnect with other nodes. Views can be static, meaning they don’t move, or they can be animated with view nodes that can fly around the screen.

Most 3D data visualization programs allow users to create a representation of any information on a computer, especially local information stored on the hard drive. Web information may or may not be accessible, depending on the program. Because web information is usually dynamic rather than static, and because it can be more difficult to access, viewing can be limited to what can be collected.

In operation, 3D data visualization is similar to other data visualization programs. The main difference between this and any other type is that all views are created in 3D, which gives the views more depth. A beneficial byproduct of using 3D is that it’s generally easier to make animations, and this gives visualization designers more work to work with so they can create more visually striking representations.

When 3D data visualization is used, the representation can be static or dynamic. Unlike being static or animated, which refers to the movement of the representation, this refers to the information itself and whether the display is self-updating. Static views, in this regard, only show a snapshot of the information and cannot change. Dynamic views update automatically; when a file or variable in the visualization changes on your hard drive or on the web, the visualization will immediately reflect this difference. Dynamic views are more in-depth, so they often require more code to ensure that the representation can be updated without shutting down, and more power is typically needed.
