Abstract
In the last decade, technological improvement on sensors increasingly motivates the use of sensor data in numerous application domains such as environmental, health, transportation, etc. Progressively, with the advances on user terminals, there is a strong trend towards interactive sensor data visualization. As viewing raw sensor data stored in multiple databases does not specially fulfill user requirements, data visualization raises challenges about supporting users to easily use and handle sensor data. In this paper, we address this particular subject with an extensible visualization and interaction platform. Within this platform, we provide developers the facility to experiment and validate multiple visualizations for sensor data, specially based sensor data properties and users’ requirements. We illustrate our platform with a medical study case focused on ECG data visualization.
