ABSTRACT
For this demo, we will show two interactive visualizations: Energy Futures and Pipeline Incidents. We designed and developed these visualizations as part of an open data initiative that aims to create interactive data visualizations to help make Canada's energy data publicly accessible, transparent, and understandable. This work was conducted in collaboration with the National Energy Board of Canada (NEB) and a visualization software development company, VizworX.

Quantitative data visualization with interactive KDE surfaces
SCCG '10: Proceedings of the 26th Spring Conference on Computer GraphicsKernel density estimation (KDE) is an established statistical concept for assessing the distributional characteristics of data that also has proven its usefulness for data visualization. In this work, we present several enhancements to such a KDE-based ...
