<p>A data visualization system for visualizing data having at least one data set, user controls for permitting a user to supply instructions to the data visualization system, a model database (30) having a plurality of virtual three dimensional models, and a processing engine adapted to receive user instructions provided through the user controls (15) for selecting a virtual three dimensional model from a plurality of three dimensional virtual models contained in the model database, and accessing at least one data set, and populating the selected virtual three dimensional model with the accessed at least one data set to generate a data structure (35) including the selected virtual three dimensional model (25) embodying a specific instance of the accessed at least one data set, and the data structure can be used as an input to an image rendering engine (40) so as to generate a two dimensional image (45) for display to the user.</p> |
