3D and Other Plots

Work has been done on innovative ways of displaying the complex tree data. Radial plots are commonly used for display of complex phylogenetic data, as display, it allows visualisation of complete trees at a coarse granularity. Anatomy trees can be viewed using the same plots.

At a finer granularity, the radial plot loses clarity as labels tend to overlap. The Anatomy Browser developed by XSPAN allows the user to zoom in on areas of the plot while retaining context.

The use of 3D plots allows nodes on different trees to be connected, for example to show analogous structures across species. They can also be used to visualise the relationship between structures across developmental stages.

All these systems are currently undergoing extensive user evaluation.
