WPF data visualisation/exploration demos

Filed under: 5. WPF — Dax++ @ 2:26 pm

I’m bringing together a number of links to ideas, code, demos, notes on WPF data visualisation/exploration:

What is Rich Data Visualization Anyways? Short discussion .. some usefull points.

Five steps to WPF data visualisation - Well thought out, simple article :)

The power of Styles and Templates in WPF - Quite detailed explaination on how to modify a listbox to quite stunning results. Some very usefull techniques .. using some of them in my new File Event Monitor.

Hierarchical View Carousel (including code) - The Hierarchical View Carousel is a prototype of a different model of navigating hierarchies, based on using a 3D effect that allows the user to better visualize the relationships between nodes.

Nice list of demo-able WPF applications - currently going through the list.

Wikipedia Explorer BETA - looks promising (even if it is of questionable usefullness) but doesn’t actually appear to work .. can’t navigate from the first page successfully :(
Investor Explorer - this one works but again is of questionable usefullness - I’m not trying to put the UI down but at the moment it’s eye candy, it’s an answer to a question that hasn’t been asked yet.
Network Explorer - more of the some .. very smooth UI. Searcg for “Ben Metcalfe”

Also rans
WPF Snowboarding Application - developed primarily using Expression Blend to create a unique experience around snowboarding. Utilizing GPS devices, data is recorded capturing all the details of a day on the mountain. NB: runs like a dog on my laptop .. really rubbish. Oh well.
