Abstract

To fund research and technological development, not only in Europe but all over the world, the European Union created so-called Framework Programmes. The data of these programmes, containing information about projects, corresponding topics, funding sums, funding periods and recipient countries, is publicly available, but hard to analyze without visual support. Therefore, a multiple coordinated view approach is developed in course of this project. The different visualization techniques used, like bar charts, treemap, choropleth map and line graph, make it possible to filter, analyze and further explore the available data through brushing and linking. The project was developed in close collaboration with the end users of the Centre for Social Innovation and received an overall positive feedback from them.
