Abstract

It is of great practical significance to analyze and demonstrate more effectively the occurrence of forest diseases, which is an important subfield in the study of forest disasters. On the basis of such features of forest disease occurrence as timing, geography and disaster grade, we synthetically employ multiple visual elements and multiple interactive technologies to design and realize a forest disease visual analysis system to assist researchers and decision makers on issues related to forest diseases. With cases selected from the data set of forest diseases, we illustrate that the system is user-friendly and the applied visualization methods are effective.
