OrgOrgChart: The Evolution of an Organization
Posted by Armando Brito Mendes | Filed under planeamento, videos, visualização
As empresas são organismos vivos: animação do organigrama de uma grande empresa
The OrgOrgChart (Organic Organization Chart) project looks at the evolution of a company’s structure over time. A snapshot of the Autodesk organizational hierarchy was taken each day between May 2007 and June 2011, a span of 1498 days.
Each day the entire hierarchy of the company is constructed as a tree with each employee represented by a circle, and a line connecting each employee with his or her manager. Larger circles represent managers with more employees working under them. The tree is then laid out using a force-directed layout algorithm.
Each second in the animation is about one week of activity, and acquisitions are most obvious when big clumps of people join the company. The long-term changes are a little harder to see, because the branches in the network fade into the background. Recomputing the layout each week might be good for the next round.

Introduction to Diagrams
Posted by Armando Brito Mendes | Filed under ARS - SNA, Investigação Operacional, videos, visualização
Uma bela introdução aos grafos
Diagrams are everywhere — from the established conventions of highway signs to the newly emerging visualizations appearing on social networking websites. Most people have a personal experience of diagrams whether drawing directions or figuring out how to operate a new computer. Yet very few people are familiar with how we read or construct diagrams.
This short film introduces the language of diagrams and their role in visual thinking and communication. As only a film can do, it reveals the vocabulary “in the wild” and in the context of making and using diagrams.

Guide to Maps and Mapping
Posted by Armando Brito Mendes | Filed under visualização
Colecção de links sobre mapas
Cartography is the study of creating maps. Cartographers are both artists and scientists who create those maps. Most maps relate spatial information two-dimensionally in order to communicate location, other geographic themes or information. Physical maps can be either flat, spherical like a globe, or digital.
There are two basic kinds of locational maps: topographic and topological. Topographic maps are produced to a standard scale, while topological maps are not. Maps have always been used to aid travelers regarding location. As information science and the need for a new way to disseminate information grew, mapping began to include themes. Dot maps for instance depict storm damage in a certain location, or how much soybean is produced in a certain state. The main purpose is to make the map meaningful to its user by keeping to a standardsymbology or legend, so that the map regardless of type, conveys the information necessary to the user who deems it valuable.
Visualização de dados FIFA

visualizacao de BDs da FIFA sobre projetos de apoio ao futebol
Studio NAND and Moritz Stefaner, along with Jens Franke explore FIFA development programs around the world.
The FIFA Development Globe visualises FIFA’s worldwide involvement in supporting football through educational and infrastructural projects. Using a 3D globe in combination with interconnected interface and visualization elements, the application provides multiple perspectives onto an enormous dataset of FIFA’s activities, grouped by technical support, performance activities, and development projects.
The globe itself is an icosahedron, or essentially a spherical shape made up of triangles. Triangles in each country represent programs and are colored by the three above categories, and you might recognize Moritz’ elastic lists in the sidebar to filter through programs, by country, organization, and type. There’s also a timeline view, which shows program development over the past five years.
Give it a go here. I should warn you though that it runs in Flash (a client requirement), and it could run sluggish depending on your machine. Sometimes I was disorientated by the interaction and animation, especially when I clicked and nothing happened until a few seconds later.

Lostalgic – visualização
Posted by Armando Brito Mendes | Filed under visualização
Forma inovadora de visualizar uma série
This project is based on the entire ABC’s LOST TV show scripts, 115 episodes in 7 seasons, that I managed to parse from Lostpedia. I also parsed this page with additional information about hidden characters relations.
My aim for this project is not (only) to visualize some properties and patterns out of the script but actually to allow to read and enjoy the series in a different way.
I plan to add new views (will inform through twitter), more aimed to reveal global patterns in the script, and I will include cliffhangers and writing teams information.
Find more information about Lostalgic in this great article and interview by Greg J. Smith in Creative Applications.
This project is dedicated to the Lost writers, to the open culture and, in particular, to the community that built Lostpedia.
