Abstract

When visualizations are used to augment text, geographical information on a map, or on mobile devices, there often is not enough space to show complex data with approaches like juxtaposed visualizations or coordinated views. To alleviate this issue, we propose the use of animated transitions between several small-scale visualizations. We discuss design considerations for animated transitions in small-scale visualizations. We further present the results of a study on the effectiveness of those animated transitions in conveying information and attribute relations, and the mental load of following the animated transitions.
