Introduction to collaborative visualization

ABSTRACT

To gain additional perspectives and expertise on data and information imaging topics, I will periodically solicit articles from researchers in the visualization community. Greg Johnson has graciously contributed this month's introduction to collaborative visualization. The subject is one that I feel is of growing importance and interest. Greg and I are interested in your views on this emerging technology and welcome your email.
