Much of computer graphics remains in the domain of the specialist since it requires an uncommon set of skills, both artistic and technical. The digital designer must possess a natural aptitude for artistic aspects such as composition, colour, and visual flow, and also engage in esoteric technical tasks such as object transformations or non-linear manipulations. Yet, even for those with the requisite skill sets, many tasks remain complex and labour-intensive. The overarching theme of this research is therefore to reduce the complexity of graphical applications through semi-automation and the incorporation of aesthetic constraints, thereby facilitating the democratization of computer graphics. Within this broader context, the proposed research will allow those working with spatial data, who may not possess artistic training, to semi-automatically create dynamic renderings of their data.

许多计算机图形仍然是专家的领域，因为它需要一套不寻常的技能，艺术和技术。数字设计师必须具备艺术方面的天赋，如构图、色彩和视觉流，还必须从事深奥的技术任务，如对象转换或非线性操作。然而，即使对那些具备必要技能的人来说，许多任务仍然是复杂和劳动密集型的。因此，本研究的首要主题是通过半自动化和美学约束的结合来减少图形应用程序的复杂性，从而促进计算机图形的民主化。在这个更广泛的背景下，拟议的研究将允许那些从事空间数据工作的人，他们可能没有受过艺术训练，半自动地创建他们的数据的动态渲染。
