In total, 70 peer-reviewed posters will be exhibiting at VisWeek showcasing the latest ideas in visualization science. Contributions are from science and industry in a wide range of disciplines and application areas and many will have associated software demos.

You can find the full list of posters HERE. We also created a PDF file with the full index of posters and authors, and another PDF file containing a map to find all the posters in the Poster Viewing Area.

From all accepted poster submissions we first shortlisted the best posters based on the review ratings. All shortlisted submissions were then evaluated by a further panel of leading academics in each of the disciplines. Any conflicts of interest were identified and addressed by removing chairs and panel members with conflicts from the decision-making process. Best poster panel members included Jean-Daniel Fekete, Frank van Ham, Hans-Christian Hege, Torsten Moeller, Hanspeter Pfister, Matt Ward and the six VisWeek poster chairs.
