摘要

Geographical areal data usually presents hierarchical structures, and its characteristics vary at different scales. At the higher scales, the visualization of geographical areal data is abstract and the detailed features are easily missed. As a difference, more detailed information is presented at the lower scales while the visual perception of global features is easily disturbed due to the overdrawing of visual elements. As the geographical areal data is visualized at a single scale at the same time, it seems impossible to balance the visual perception of both the global features and detailed characteristics. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale geographical areal data visualization method based on spatial attribute association to enhance the visual perception of both the global features and detailed characteristics. Firstly, the geographical areal data is aggregated into hierarchical clusters based on the spatial similarity. Then, the coefficient of variation is applied to estimate the attribute distribution of each cluster in the hierarchy, and a novel geographical areal data visualization scheme is proposed to adaptively present the multi-scale clusters with lower variation coefficients at the same time. In addition, a rich set of visual interfaces and user-friendly interactions are provided enabling users to specify those clusters of interest at different scales and compare multi-scale visualizations with different hierarchies. Finally, we implement a geographical areal data visualization framework, allowing users to visually explore the global features and detailed characteristics at the same time and get deeper insights into the potential features in the geographical areal data. Case studies and quantitative comparisons based on real-world datasets have been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed multi-scale visualization method for in-depth visual exploration of geographical areal data.
