Data Illustrator: Augmenting Vector Design Tools with Lazy Data Binding for Expressive ...
summary
A system called Data Illustrator augments vector design tools by letting designers draw shapes first and apply lazy data binding later, using repeat/partition operators to generate marks and interactive scales and legends to control mappings. The implementation creates triangle bar charts, small multiples for US states, and Olympic examples, handles about 4–5k rows before lag, and a qualitative study with 13 designers shows it speeds recreation of complex graphics from hours to minutes.
