The amount of biological data is continuously growing, the reason why the data analysis methods have to evolve accordingly. Throughout the project AVATARS various biological data about rapeseed such as genomes, transcriptomes, metabolomes, and phenomes are generated and visualized in virtual reality. Since all biological data domains are related, AVATARS aims to support a holistic understanding of several and complex data sets with immersive analytics.
In a first step, need-finding interviews were conducted to identify core and pressing data analysis needs of twelve biologists. Based on the insights, a first prototype has been developed. A tabular representation in VR is used to align genomes of several phenotypes. The prototype supports the user to get an overview of up to 5 million data values, to access details on demand and in real-time. Initial user feedback indicates that immersive analytics is beneficial to analyze large data sets.
