Abstract

This chapter introduces information visualization as a canonical foundation of this thesis. We will first try to differentiate information visualization from related areas. The goal is to have a common understanding of the term information visualization in context of this work. Thereafter we outline the interdisciplinary character of information visualization. For this we start with the human and introduce various models and research outcomes on visual perception.
