Visualizing spatial interaction characteristics with direction-based pattern maps
Visualization that presents the data using maps, data tables or diagrams so that spatial patterns can be observed, is a vital field in SI studies. This research proposes direction-based pattern maps, a new visualization approach for SI data to present the SI pattern of every place by aggregating the data in cardinal directions.
