Description
Summary:© 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. Within the scope of this publication, we present a design prototype for the 3D visualization of financial data of Australia’s Energy sector with a large scale immersive virtual reality environment. We review existing 3D visualization approaches in finance industry; discuss the technical setup of the prototype; explore design considerations; and approaches to make financial information understandable for everyone. We conclude with a discussion about the potential that immersive virtual environments provide to support the understanding of market events, as well as the exploration of large multidimensional data-sets.
