A method and an apparatus for visualizing data sets comprising a defined number of elements, which are subject to a temporal process, are described. After determining (10, 11, 12) a number (B) of displayable clusters of spatially adjacent elements of the data set at least part of the elements of the data set are retrieved (14). The retrieved elements of the data set and the not yet retrieved elements of the data set are clustered (15) into the determined number of clusters, wherein the not yet retrieved elements of the data set are represented using placeholders. After assigning (17) a value to each cluster, the value of each cluster is visualized (18) on the display. Whenever one or more elements of the data set are modified and/or whenever one or more further elements of the data set are retrieved, the clusters, the assigned values and the visualization on the display are updated (15, 17, 18). |
