Abstract :
Many geographical dataseis can be depicted as a graph layered over a map for motion and spatial relations analyses. In this work we present a novel and real-time exploration system that interactively distorts 3D graph layouts without information loss. The 3D visualisation technique is camera dependent. Therefore, it is affected by all three navigation axes, in contrast to traditional interactions in 2D spaces.
