Extracted Abstract:

Soft sensors have been successfully applied to simulate physical and chemical measurements in specific locations of a monument. They allowed monitoring the quality conditions of the monument surface for long periods of time. This is a not in- vasive process that provides a huge set of multidimensional data. They have been analyzed by the Cultural Heritage ex- perts to find physical or chemical critical condition which could generate some degradation process. Here we propose several multidimensional visualization techniques to represent the predictions of environmental pa- rameters, given by several soft sensors, in a comprehensive and compact way. Visualization tools using both shape vari- ation (glyph) and color are developed to realize an homoge- neous communication paradigm. Moreover, each tool uses a 3D navigable model of the monument as visual support. 1

Level 1: Include/Exclude

  • Papers must discuss situated information visualization* (by Willet et al.) in the application domain of CH.
    *A situated data representation is a data representation whose physical presentation is located close to the data’s physical referent(s).
    *A situated visualization is a situated data representation for which the presentation is purely visual – and is typically displayed on a screen.
  • Representation must include abstract data (e.g., metadata).
  • Papers focused solely on digital reconstruction without information visualization aspects are excluded.
  • Posters and workshop papers are excluded to focus on mature research contributions.
