We’re collaborating with epidemiologists and visualization researchers across the UK to develop approaches that make Visual Analytics an integral part of the technological infrastructure for combating COVID-19.
Our EPSRC funded COVID 19 Rapid Response project is coordinated by the University of Oxford and builds on some of the knowledge acquired and technology developed in the RAMP volunteering effort of the summer of 2020. We are using interactive visualization to help modellers understand model inputs, parameters, outputs and their spatial signatures.
Aidan Slingsby’s Gridded GlyphMaps are an excellent example of the way in which we are using flexible, fluid, interactive graphics to explore the needs of the modellers and the nature of their data.
