Abstract

The sales force management data at Thomson Reuters often contains multiple hierarchies and dependencies. Conventional business graphics are not sufficient for analyzing, presenting and exploring such data sets. The Treemap is effective for depicting hierarchical data, although it lacks structural clarity. Thus, distinguishing different levels within the treemap is difficult. In this abstract, we develop an interactive system for business analysts which enables structure-aware visualization of hierarchical data using multiple coordinated views. The design of this system includes hierarchy extraction, structure tracings and the direct manipulation of the treemap. We demonstrate our result on various sales force management data sets from Thomson Reuters.
