A key part of data management is visualization. People should be able to
create their own visualizations of the data they create. David Huynh (now at
Google) wrote a great open source javascript library
(http://simile-widgets.org/exhibit ) that lets people author rich interactive
visualizations of the kind of data that datawiki aims to collect. We
integrated that framework into Semantic Mediawiki, the closest competitor I
know to datawiki. You can see an example at
http://projects.csail.mit.edu/wibit/ . Because exhibit is just a client-side
javascript library, integration was simple. I think it would add value to
incorporate this visualization library into datawiki. We're too low on
manpower to be able to tackle this ourselves but I'd be happy to help someone
else do it.
