A spreadsheet user-interfaced web-based business data publishing system allows users to input and visualize field data and analytical results with interactive charts through a familiar MS-EXCEL user interface. A plug-in module associated with the user's browser and EXCEL application enables a background, web-services connection over the Internet to a management sub-system which extracts, transforms, and publishes data. Charts are customized using a WYSIWYG interface, and business dashboards are constructed through a simple drag-n-drop process. An account management system is included with access control to protect information security. The system is used for visualizing data managing reports, providing special tools to use SAP data, access Query Cubes in SAP BW, and standard and custom R/3 reports. Once data has been extracted from SAP, it is transformed, merged with other data sources, and published as a dashboard or in a business portal. Its management and configuration functions are suited for enterprise reporting and sharing business data.

A primary graphical input device such as a scroll bar or slider is displayed in order to allow graphical input and adjustment of at least one parameter, such as the page number of a displayed document in a word-processing program or a range value in a data visualization routine. Whenever a user activates the graphical input device, the user may set and change the parameter not only purely graphically, as in conventional applications, for example by dragging some portion of the primary device by moving a mouse, but also by entering a specific value into the secondary graphical input device, for example, via a keyboard. The invention thus provides an intuitive way for a user to quickly and easily navigate graphical objects not only by using pointing devices, but also by entering alphabetic or numeric input, all while maintaining the inherent advantages of “point and click” graphical displays.

A computer graphics display method and system for controlling data visualization in at least one external dimension is provided which allows better querying and navigation of data in external dimension space. A data visualization is displayed in a first display window. A summary window provides summary information on data for the data visualization across one or more external dimensions. First and second controllers are displayed for controlling the variation of the data visualization in respective first and second external dimensions. A user queries the data visualization in the first and second external dimensions by selecting a point in the summary window. A user navigates through the data visualization in the first and second external dimensions by defining a path in the summary window. Grid points are also displayed in the summary window to facilitate data queries and navigation based on actual data points. The first and second controllers can be first and second sliders, such as, slide buttons, dials, or any other type of input.

A method, system, and computer program product are provided for a new data visualization tool that visually approximates a scatter plot and provides smooth animation of graphics by using interpolated data. An interpolation process is performed over pre-processed bins of scattered data points. A user can smoothly animate a plot along several dimensions by using an external query device to vary a selected data attribute. If the external query device (or slider) control is positioned in between discrete positions of the slider, the displayed plot corresponds to interpolated data. Adjacent data structures are determined corresponding to the position of the external query device. The adjacent data structures are merged together, then aggregated the using the spatial columns of the data structure as a unique key. An interpolated bin is generated, where the weight of the bin is interpolated and the dependent attribute is also interpolated and weighted. The interpolated dependent attribute is mapped to color in the visualized scatter plot. The plot appears as rendered splats corresponding to bin positions of the interpolated bins, where each splat has an opacity that is a function of the interpolated weight of data points in the corresponding bin.

The present disclosure relates generally to a data enrichment service that automatically profiles data sets and provides visualizations of the profiles using a visual-interactive model within a client application (such as a web browser or mobile app). The visual profiling can be refined through end user interaction with the visualization objects and guide exploratory data visualization and discovery. Additionally, data sampling of heterogeneous data streams can be performed during ingestion to extract statistical attributes from multi-columnar data (e.g., standard deviation, median, mode, correlation coefficient, histogram, etc.). Data sampling can continue in real-time as data sources are updated.
