Immersive analytics turns the very space surrounding the user into a canvas for data analysis, supporting human cognitive abilities in myriad ways. We present the results of a design study, contextual inquiry, and longitudinal evaluation involving professional economists using a Virtual Reality (VR) system for multidimensional visualization to explore actual economic data. Results from our preregistered evaluation highlight the varied use of space depending on context (exploration vs. presentation), the organization of space to support work, and the impact of immersion on navigation and orientation in the 3D analysis space.
沉浸式分析将用户周围的空间变成了数据分析的画布,以多种方式支持人类的认知能力。我们展示了一项设计研究、情境调查和纵向评估的结果,涉及使用虚拟现实 (VR) 系统进行多维可视化的专业经济学家,以探索实际经济数据。我们预先注册评估的结果强调了根据上下文(探索与展示)灵活使用空间、组织空间以支持工作,以及沉浸感对 3D 分析空间中的导航和定向的影响。
