CLOSED: Call for Papers: Special Issue on Visualization in the Wild
CG&A seeks submissions for this upcoming special issue.
Important Dates
Submissions due: 17 April 2023
Publication: November/December 2023
Visualization approaches have been successfully applied to a variety of application fields. Continuously published novel visualization approaches reflect the need for and success of visualization approaches. However, when looking at visualization techniques that designers apply in real-world applications targeted at a larger user group (e.g., medical experts, engineers, journalists and public authorities), novel, published approaches hardly end up being used in real-world scenarios. This is unfortunate, especially since data science and data analytics are emerging fields, with many users needing data visualization. So far, it is not clearly defined which visualization approaches can be transferred successfully and how, and which cannot. In this special issue, we aim to shed light on (un)successful visualization approaches in real-world applications and to encounter reasons or guidelines for bringing visualization approaches into the wild. The special issue will contain success or non-success stories of visualization approaches in various applications and lessons learned from these experiences. It also welcomes guidelines and workflows that assist in bringing visualization approaches into real-world applications to reach larger groups of users.
