Hi.. I am teaching our Infovis course after a very long time this Spring. The last time I taught there were no textbooks to speak of.. we have come a long way in that regard.. I would like recommendations for datasets that I can use in course assignments/projects. Ideally, datasets that are paired with key visualization concepts. Any pointers on this? I will be using D3js as part of the course and been trying to do a crash course on that in preparation for the course and slowly getting the hang of it. Plan to cover the following topics (as of now!) Human Perception and Information Processing Data Foundations (types, distributions, etc) Geospatial data Vis Multivariate Vis Time Varying Vis Interaction Concepts, Techniques Visualization Evaluation/Design (using a combination of 2-3 books - Munzner, Few, Ward) Thanks. -- krs -- Kalpathi Subramanian Ph: 704 687 8579 Associate Professor Email: krs@uncc.edu Dept of Computer Science Web:http://webpages.uncc.edu/~krs The University of North Carolina Charlotte, NC 28202-0001
