Sounds cool, but for a "web based" system, it's strange they have nothing to demo but screen shots and movies.

There is a "Demos" section on the http://www.oicweave.org/ page with a few working examples.

Great name, but I kind of wish folks would recognize that visualization is more than just overlaying geodata on a map.

That's an important and huge step, and one that used to cost real bucks to do on a computer... but this project seems to be built around geo data as the foundation of your data, and that becomes limiting when analyzing data that has nothing to do with geography.

Given the parent group driving this development (http://www.oicweave.org/), it's not surprising that it's so geo focused. That what they built it for. But "GWEAVE" doesn't roll off the tongue as nicely.

The interface is fun and lots of cool elements here... but I look forward to more demos and features that examine data independent of geo. Given that the code is GPL, perhaps folks will help add more non-geo approaches and integrate it with R, etc.

Hi, Weave has more visualizations than maps. Here's a simple grouping of interacting scatterplots, for example, that I was using to analyze some health data. http://www.flashbit.com/weave.html?defaults=chinaCholesterol... It is integrated with R. R is calculating the lines of regression, the correlations and p values shown. Here is a grouping of parallel coordinates visualizations, again analyzing health data. http://www.flashbit.com/weave.html?defaults=corStaples.xml

Ah, a demo! This is pretty fun to use. While I wish it weren't flash, I now see more of the power of the tool...

You should have shots and movies of these setups on the site to show the power; every screenshot and demo movie I saw shows maps.
