In exploring large volumes of information, more often than not, one single visualization is not sufficient for grasping the whole data set. This may be due to different reasons: the screen real-estate is limited, the user?s capacity for comprehending a large data set also has limits, different views or perspectives of the same data may be needed to grasp all the details, and so on.

Multiple visualizations allow the user to explore large amounts of complex information more easily and rapidly. We believe that one of the strengths of 3D metaphoric information visualization will emerge from the combined use of several interacting tools, each potentially depicting different views of the information. This paper presents work done on using multiple views for the visualization of abstract information via metaphoric representations.
