  1. A User-Centric Approach to the use of modern tools for database visualisation & image processing • by • Jan Dunnink

  2. Use of Information Systemsin the Intelligence Environment MS-DOS PC’s + Apple Macintosh Around 1990 Central: mainframe DB Visualisation Each user: Non-intelligent terminal

  3. Characteristics for the use Around 1990: storage neuroses (general) just alpha and numeric (mainframe) processing in batch (mainframe) first local processing and storage (PC) first pictures, images, graphics (Mac) DB Visualisation

  4. Characteristics for the use (cont’d) During the 90’s: PC-Networking Client/Server MS-Dos  Windows Graphics, images, sound (Multimedia) Internet • User friendliness DB Visualisation

  5. 1999 Question 1: Characteristics for the user (cont’d) How to use this technology in the intelligence environment? DB Visualisation

  6. INTERNAL DATABASES OPEN SOURCES DB Visualisation 1999 Question 2: How do I get the right information out of the right database at the right time?

  7. Information Paradox Solution ‘A picture says more than thousand words’ VISUALISATION DB Visualisation

  8. Database visualisation via graphical display (charts) Simple chart DB Visualisation
