We have long used charts and graphs to represent data. Graphs enable us to gather information quickly, spot trends, identify comparisons among demographics, make decisions for financial analysis, or make a medical diagnosis. The goal in visualizing data is to distinguish information, enhance understanding, and communicate more effectively. Two-dimensional charts are ideal for newspapers and now for web pages. However, as the amount of data grows, we need new tools to visualize this data. With 3D, we can walk through the data, zoom in and out of it, and view it from above or straight on. The following examples will bring together how data is shared using common industry formats, how to parse the data, and how to represent it in 3D.
