Research at
the Lab
for Geoinformatics and Geovisualization (g2lab) is
guided by the following ideas:
.. visualizing spatio-temporal
data enables understanding of complex
problems and decision making
.. applying task-oriented approaches generates effective and
efficient
visualizations
.. modeling and communicating uncertainties makes decisions more
certain
