Advanced Visual
Systems Inc. has released version 2.2 of its OpenViz development
system for creating highly interactive charts, graphs and analytics

Highlights of
the latest edition of OpenViz include powerful features for the
presentation and exploration of OLAP hierarchical data; complete
support for Java plug-ins; Microsoft .NET integration; innovative
new "patch" charting techniques that enable rapid comprehension
of multiple dimensions of financial data; highly customizable currency

Used by leading
software companies to add interactive analytics to their business
intelligence, financial, portal and data warehousing software products,
OpenViz has also been deployed by global enterprises to provide
powerful insight into all types of corporate data and the enhance
decision-making by large populations of users.
According to Jeff
Tingle, Vice President of Product Development and Professional Services
at AVS, "One of the key features of OpenViz 2.2 is its ability
to present OLAP data structures in a variety of ways that permit
end-users to quickly understand the relationships between multiple
dimensions of data. Despite the increasing power of OLAP data formats,
we found that few users were able to truly comprehend or exploit
cubed content, so we developed several techniques that make the
process both simple and intuitive."
In OpenViz 2,2,
hierarchical data can be presented in familiar 2D or 3D "tree"
presentations that empower users to drill down into the tree to
expand or roll-up layers of data. For software developers creating
applications with OLAP data, the trees can take on a wide variety
of layout configurations; braches and nodes can be colorized by
value and contain highly configurable text or numeric values. Three-dimensional
and other charting techniques are also available for hierarchal
data.
