Title: Systems and methods of generating a plurality of data visualizations in a data visualization region

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1469172

An exemplary method of generating a plurality of data visualizations comprises displaying a graphical user interface that includes a schema information region and a data visualization region. The method further includes receiving user actions to associate first, second, and third fields included in the schema information region with a plurality of shelves of the data visualization region. The method further includes generating a plurality of data visualizations in the data visualization region in accordance with the received user actions, each data visualization includes a plurality of data marks corresponding to a respective retrieved tuple of data having the first, second, and third fields. Moreover, each of the data marks has an x-position and y-position defined according to data for the first and second fields, respectively. In addition, each of the data visualizations corresponds to a respective unique value of the third field, and is displayed in a respective pane.
