Next Generation Visual Analytics: The Power of Connecting GIS & Time

While most GIS tools provide insight to places and locations, the significance of time is often lost, making it difficult for users to uncover the connections within their data. GeoTime displays data over both space and time within a highly interactive3D view, providing a single, unified environment for visual analysis.

During this interactive webcast, we will explore GeoTime’s unique approach to visual analysis, which not only complements existing GIS systems, but greatly enhances an analyst ability to quickly and efficiently derive the events, patterns and/or behaviours hidden within their data.
