Abstract

This paper describes an interactive data visualization application that aims to show how the Portuguese people spent culturally their leisure time between 1994 and 2009. The leisure trend is displayed to the end-user through the use of different visualization techniques and visual cues. The authors developed the visual representations based on the use of simple and regular visual shapes that could be easily combined, interpreted, memorized and used. To better evaluate their results, the authors tested their prototype against a preselected group of subjects.
