Visualization Mock-Ups of Charting Engines
We have created visualization mock-ups with DDC component using various types of charting engines.
- Dynamic D3 charts
D3 is an extremely fast, supporting large datasets and dynamic behaviours for interaction and animation. We have embedded the most popular JavaScript charting engine “D3.js” and created a dashboard with the combination of multiple interactive and multi-level drill down animated D3 charts.
- High Charts/HTML 5 Charts
We have embedded different widgets available in HTML/High charts library. We have also developed a functionality of Zoom in and Zoom out.
- Fusion Charts
Fusion Charts Suite XT is an interactive JavaScript charts for web, mobile and enterprise applications. Using the JavaScript API of each chart, TIBCO JRS provides lot more functionalities like client-side data updates, updating individual parameters, exporting charts as PDFs, creating multi-level drill-down.
We have created visualization mock-ups with DDC component using various types of charting engines.
- Google Maps
We have integrated the Google Map that can show the shipping status with different colored markers indicating the source and the destination and lines to represent the Airline routes. The Google Map also supports numerous levels of drill down.
- Leaflet Maps
We have integrated the Leaflet Map that forms a cluster of the markers and shows the number of items in each cluster, and as we zoom it adjusts the clusters based on the current view. This not only makes the map easier for the user to understand, it’s also efficiently displays the huge data points on a map.
We have developed some customized visualizations which can be altered depending on the client’s requirement.
- Multi-layered Drill down
To provide flexibility to user to view all the drill downs, detailed report information in one page rather than multiple browser pages/tabs, DEFTeam has created a component “Multi-layered Dashboard”.
- Interactivity in Reports – Comment and Chat
Interactivity in reports allows users to communicate through comments that can be inserted in the report. Inserted comments need to be saved for communication purpose. It displays the chronological order of the comments inserted which are useful for testing.
- Save Retrieve
The functionality of Save / Retrieve is implemented in the dashboard to allow users to save the selected Input control values with a unique name and then retrieve the past selections by selecting the previously saved selections name from Retrieve drop down list. This enables user to retrieve the dashboard with saved input controls and dashboard will appear with the previously selected list of Input options. This also helps to save time when a dashboard has more than 10 input controls.
- Share Dashboard
DEFTeam also facilitates users to share the Dashboard with desired dashlets (Reports), which helps the users to discuss with their peers when and where necessary. This can be achieved by annotating the captured dashboard and save it as PDF/JPEG and thus can be shared via Email. Recipients can access this annotated dashboard for further communication.
