Experience Revolutionary Three-Dimensional Timeline Visualization

TimeWall revolutionizes timeline visualization, providing a richness of physical experience that can't be represented in standard project planning and timeline tools.

TimeWall makes it possible for you to discern patterns over long time horizons, while enabling you to direct your focus on a particular time segment of interest. Using filters, you can narrow down information, based on any combination of structured information, including numeric and geographic.

While typical time tools are static, inflexible, and ill-suited for displays of large quantities of information, TimeWall displays time on a living, three-dimensional "wall." By placing relevant data at their fingertips, it empowers analysts to make faster, more informed decisions and empowers users to better state their cases in court or in presentations.
Sample Uses

Sample uses for TimeWall include:

* Uncovering new business opportunities or threats by monitoring events and news
* Revealing potential mergers and acquisitions or partnership activity
* Better defending your market space by monitoring patterns of competitors' analyst and press coverage over time
* Tracking financial activities over time between several organizations and companies

Features

TimeWall features include:

* Application integration – Easily integrates into a variety of applications, from counter-terrorism applications to legal applications and beyond.
* Data display – Displays numeric data (dates) on the horizontal axis and categories (locations, people, companies) on the vertical axis.
* Cards for timeline exploration – Cards represent individual events, and a stretch property can be set to dynamically narrow the data range. Numeric data can be as fine-grained or broad as the underlying data supports. Cards make it possible for you to manage your exploration of the three-dimensional wall in a variety of ways:
o Cards can be color coded (for example, e-mails can be green; contracts signed can be purple).
o Cards can support photos or icons.
o Spotlighting on cards shows search results.
o Cards can be filtered by being made invisible.
o Structured data supported by the cards can be used as criteria for filtering.
o Tooltips can be used to display additional card information.
o Double-clicking on a card launches the associated URL in a browser window.
o Clicking on a card scrolls the wall to center the card.
o Clicking on the wall centers the wall at the point it was clicked.
o A stretch property can be set to dynamically narrow the data range.
