English abstract:
A well-designed visualization of dynamic networks has to support the analysis of both temporal and relational fea- tures at once. In particular to solve complex synoptic tasks, the users need to understand the topological structure of the network, its evolution over time, and possible interde- pendencies. In this paper, we introduce the application of the vertigo zoom interaction technique, derived from film- making, to information visualizations. When applied to a two-and-a-half-dimensional view, this interaction technique enables smooth transitions between the relational perspec- tive (node-link diagrams and scatter plots) and the time per- spective (trajectories and line charts), supporting a seamless visual analysis and preserving the userīs mental map.
