大型高分辨率显示器为数据可视化和交互提供了新的机会。然而，这种显示的交互技术大多支持窗口操作和指向，忽略了数据分析中涉及的许多活动。我们报告了来自各个领域的数据分析师的11个研讨会，包括艺术摄影，电话日志分析，天体物理学和医疗保健政策。分析师们被要求在一个大白板上使用实际数据浏览最近的任务，想象它是一个大显示器。从由此产生的评论和视频分析的行为在研讨会上，我们产生的想法，新的互动技术的大型显示器。这些想法包括通过回溯和对备选方案的流体探索来支持可视化序列;使用到显示器的距离来改变可视化;以及在显示器上或相对于用户固定变量和数据集。
Large, high-resolution displays offer new opportunities for visualizing and interacting with data. However, interaction techniques for such displays mostly support window manipulation and pointing, ignoring many activities involved in data analysis. We report on 11 workshops with data analysts from various fields, including artistic photography, phone log analysis, astrophysics, and health care policy. Analysts were asked to walk through recent tasks using actual data on a large whiteboard, imagining it to be a large display. From the resulting comments and a video analysis of behavior in the workshops, we generate ideas for new interaction techniques for large displays. These ideas include supporting sequences of visualizations with backtracking and fluid exploration of alternatives; using distance to the display to change visualizations; and fixing variables and data sets on the display or relative to the user.
