Definition of VisualizationVisualization:
the use of (usually) computer graphics to reveal insight into data to a userto form a mental vision, image, or picture of (something not visible or present to the sight, or of an abstraction); to make visible to the mind or imagination [Oxford Engl. Dict., 1989]
computer graphics, but not photo-realistic renderingThe purpose of computing is insight, not numbers[R. Hamming, 1962]The purpose of visualization is insight, not pictures[B. Schneidermann, 1999]
