skyrails social network viz

30 October 2007

skyrails.jpg
a freely available social network visualization system that features a built-in programming language for configuring the visualization attributes of the graph. the added flexibility of the scripting language within Skyrails, accessible through scripting or via menus, allows lay users to change the interface or choose how to represent attributes (i.e. nodes can be bound to planes & spheres based on their attributes).

2 movies demonstrating the smooth dynamic character & interface of the visualization system is available after the break.

looks great. the videos have been deleted from youtube, though.

are there tutorials available yet on how to use your own data sets... I am assuming it can use CSV files, I just wonder how easy it is to customize in the GUI without having to do too much programing.
