CCP Visualisation Tools Survey.

Through the EPSRC SLA and via the University of Manchester we have been asked to coordinate some visualisation surveys across certain disciplines. This is to inform current uses as well as indicate trends and developments for future collaboration and high impact visualisation uses. The aim is to complete the surveys by the end of October 2014, then evaluate the use and practicality of such a system for long term embedding into a visualisation service. Details from all users will be in this public site..


Why?

Through the EPSRC SLA and via the University of Manchester we have been asked to coordinate some visualisation surveys across certain disciplines. This is to inform current uses as well as indicate trends and developmenta for future collaboration and high impact visualisation uses. The aim is to complete the initial tasks by October 2014, but evaluate the use and practicality of such a system for long term embedding into a visualisation service. Details from all users will be in this public site.
