EuroVis 2014 – 16th annual visualisation gathering at Swansea University

EuroVis 2014, hosted by Swansea University from June 9-13, is the 16th annual visualisation gathering organised by the Eurographics Working Group on Data Visualisation and supported by the IEEE Visualisation and Graphics Technical Committee (IEEE VGTC).

EuroVis has been a Eurographics and IEEE co-supported international visualisation symposium held in Europe annually since 1999. Since 2014 EuroVis is a conference.

The exciting and vibrant field of Visualisation is an increasingly important research area due to its wide range of applications in many disciplines. In general, our ability to collect, store, and archive data vastly exceeds our ability derive useful knowledge and insight from it. This is a ubiquitous problem.

Data visualisation is key in gaining an understanding of large, complex data sets by exploiting the human visual system. Data visualisation leverages computer graphics in order to provide a visual overview, explore, analyse, and present phenomena which is often difficult to understand.

The objective of EuroVis is to foster greater exchange between visualisation researchers and practitioners, and to draw more researchers and industry partners in Europe to enter this rapidly growing area of research.

EuroVis has an expanded scope to include all areas of visualisation, and a steadily more wide-spread visibility that achieves a more wide-spread impact.

EuroVis papers are published as a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, (CGF) the International Journal of the Eurographics Association, using a two-stage review process.

The main conference is preceded by Workshops such as EuroVA 2014, the 5th international EuroVis Workshop on Visual Analytics, which will be held in the same location on June 9 and 10, 2014. Other closely related workshops will also be held.
