Joel Lanir: Visualizing museum visitor behavior patterns /

ISVIS 2015 Shenkar College, Ramat Gan, Israel May 13-14, 2015 http://www.isvisshenkar.org/ Synopsis: "For museum curators it is imperative to learn, analyze, and understand the behavior patterns of the visitors in their museum. Recent developments in the field of indoor positioning systems make the acquisition and availability of visitor behavior data more attainable. However, the analysis of such data remains a challenge due to its noisiness, complexity and sheer size. The current talk describes the design and implementation of a visual system aimed at helping museum curators and personnel to better understand and analyze visitor behavior in their museum. We start by performing an analysis of the curators’ information needs, and accordingly we design visualizations that are based on the acquired data and address curators’ needs. Finally, we evaluated our design decisions by conducting an expert study with museum curators."
