SOCR Motion Charts

SOCR Motion Charts are developed by the Statistics Online Computational Resource. Lead developers on this project are Jameel Al-Aziz, Jenny Cui and Ivo Dinov. Motion Charts allow the visualization of multivariate and high-dimensional data that has a temporal or longitudinal dimension. SOCR Motion Charts use categorical, ordinal, nominal, discrete and continuous types of variables.
