Mission confiée:


Organizations such as Agribalyse, NASA, or governments amass enormous amounts of data to track our environment and the impacts of our decisions.

These data come in the form of satellite images, sensor data, model projections, measured averages and are likewise aggregated into higher-level key-performance-indicators (KPI).

The sheer wealth of measures and data can overwhelm and requires bespoke setups and interventions to help people understand
- _Which data, measures, and interaction exist?_
- _What do they say and how to interpret them?_
- _How to use the information to make data-driven decisions for citizens and organizations?_

However, designing public dashboards comes with serious challenges in the form of the following research questions.

Research question 1:

What are effective visualizations understood by lay audiences and how can we design them? how can these visualizations be made effective and into a coherent dashboard design and experience? Addressing this question will require solutions to show data on a global level, finding effective visual representations for multivariate and temporal data, defining and visualizing KPIs and measures, and organizing these informations on a common display [4].


Research question 2:

How to explain data and visualizations? Currently, dashboards are considered as pure interfaces to the data but without taking into account explanation and active explanation of its components [5].

However, we do not have good solutions to effectively explain the vast amount of information and visualization shown on such dashboards.


Research question 3:

Interaction and personalization: What are effective means to allow people explore and personalize their dashboard experience? This question asks for novel technical solutions compatible with large public dashboards, i.e., without interrupting other people engaging with the dashboard but providing some degree of collaboration.

Within this project, we aim to explore using mixed and augmented reality to allow for interaction while augmenting and personalizing information shown on the dashboard display.
