VisNow - a generic data visualization platform
VisNow is a generic visualization platform in Java technology. It was originally designed and developed by the Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling (ICM) at the University of Warsaw for over a decade.
Since 2020 VisNow development made a step towards the open-source community and is now developed by the visnow.org association, still with significant contribution from ICM and the original VisNow team!
On this web page, you can find VisNow extensions and applications developed by the ICM that do not contribute to visnow.org projects, as well as some legacy materials and old VisNow releases.
About VisNow
VisNow is a modular data flow driven platform enabling users to create schemes for data visualization, visual analysis, data processing, and simple simulations. Motivated by the 'Read and Watch' idea, VisNow shows the data as soon and fast as possible giving further opportunity for processing and more in-depth visualization. In a few steps, it can create professional images and movies as well as discover unknown information hidden in datasets.
VisNow, not trying to be yet another visualization tool, is targeted at overcoming the drawbacks of other similar software platforms. It is subject to the following keynotes:
- Clear and legible desktop
- Network creation support
- Multifunctional modules
- Module-Object-Interface connection
