Introduction to DataScope

DataScope is a web application that allows you to browse and integrate multiple data types and visualize massive amounts of data. Using interactive, linked, dashboards, you can filter the data by attributes you select and view your results in scatterplots, data tables, image grids, and heatmaps.

Using the procedures explained in the DataScope Developer's Guide, you can customize your data, dashboards, and visualizations. This guide explains the way to manipulate the scatterplots, data tables, and image grids you use to visualize your data. This documentation does not yet include an explanation of how to use the heatmap visualization type.

Understanding the Visualization Types

Data Table: Provides a tabular representation of the provided attributes. Shows 100 records at a time.

Bubble Chart: A bubble chart is a variation of a scatter chart in which the data points are replaced with bubbles, and an additional dimension of the data is represented in the size of the bubbles. Can be used to visualize 4 dimensions.

Image Grid: A list of images that is by default two columns but expands to add more columns when more screen real estate becomes available.

Heatmap: A heatmap is a graphical representation of data where the individual values contained in a matrix are represented by colors.
