Extending MedThaiVis-Thai medical research visualization to SAGE2 display walls

Abstract

Medical Research Project data in Thailand is currently playing an important role in Thai medical research for Thai Public Health practitioners and decision makers. In order to effectively visualize such complex data, large-scale highresolution screens are needed. Therefore, we explored the compatibility of these large-scale displays with this data through the creation of a Scalable Amplified Group Environment (SAGE2) native application that allows us to display various Thai medical research project data visualizations existing in web and cloud based application of MedThaiVis. By using the multiple high-resolution tiled screen walls driven by SAGE2 middleware, users will work and interact with large amounts of data that could not be displayed clearly on traditional desktop screen due to their size. This work serves as a foundation to support a new collaborative environment for Thai public health decision makers and practitioners in the future.
