The lecture deals with visual representation of data. Interactive visualization is the communication of data in visual form. Visualization can be used for exploration of data for data analysis, and for communication of data and analysis results in reports, presentations, or online. The lecture will cover the basics of visualization. This includes selected topics from visualization process, interaction, human perception, color spaces, data types, data structure, transformation and processing, visual representation of data such as 2D, 3D, multivariate data, time related data, spatial data, graphs, and volume and flow data. Basic methods and their practical examples as well as applications and current research approaches are presented.

In the exercises to the lecture the lecture material is deepened. Exercises are discussed under the guidance of a tutor. In addition to deepening the subject knowledge, the exercises can also serve to acquire communication and presentation skills.
