VisNow
generic visualization platform
VisNow is a generic visualization platform in Java technology. It is a modular data-flow driven platform enabling users to create schemes for data visualization, visual analysis, data processing, and simple simulations. Motivated by the 'Read and Watch’ idea, VisNow shows the data as soon and fast as possible giving further opportunity for processing and more in-depth visualization. In a few steps, it can create professional images and movies as well as discover unknown information hidden in datasets. VisNow is also a useful tool in iterative prototyping workflows for visual debugging and validation.
VisNow, not trying to be yet another visualization tool, is targeted at overcoming the drawbacks of other similar software platforms. It is subject to the following keynotes:
- Clear and legible desktop
- Network creation support
- Multifunctional modules
- Module-Object-Interface connection
VisNow was originally designed and developed by the Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling (ICM) at the University of Warsaw for over a decade.
Since 2020 VisNow development made a step towards the open-source community and is now coordinated by the visnow.org association, still with major contribution of ICM and the original VisNow designers team!
