In order to correctly and comprehensibly visualize data in a user-oriented way data specific aspects have to be considered. Furthermore, user-oriented perception characteristics are decisive for the fast and proper interpretation of the visualized data. In this paper we present a taxonomy for graph visualization techniques. On the one hand it provides the user-oriented identification of applicable visual features for given data to be visualized. On the other hand the set of visualization techniques is enclosed which supports these identified visual features. Thus, the taxonomy supports the development of user-oriented visualizations by examination of data to obtain a beneficial association of data to visual features. |

The collection and organization of information is an important step for showing important information to interested people. But the usage of such semantic-based data sources depends on effective and efficient information visualizations. Currently different kinds of visualizations in general and visualization metaphors do exist. Many of them are also applied for semantic data source, but often they are designed for semantic web experts and neglecting the normal user and his perception of an easy useable visualization. This kind of user needs less information, but rather a reduced qualitative view on the data. These two aspects of large amount of existing data and one for normal users easy to understand visualization is often not reconcilable. In this paper we create a concept for a visualization to show a bigger set of information to such normal users without overstraining them, because of layer-based data visualization, next to an integration of a Focus and Context metaphor. |
