Abstract

This chapter provides a conceptual link between the decision making process, visualization, visual discovery, and visual reasoning. A structural model of the decision making process is offered along with the relevant visual aspects. Examples of USS Cole incident in 2000 and the Cholera epidemic in London in 1854 illustrate the conceptual approach. A task-driven visualization is described as a part of the decision making process and illustrated with browsing and search tasks.
