This document discusses visual analytics and sensemaking. Visual analytics combines data visualization with analytics techniques to help make sense of big data. An example is given of a visual analytics system called SAVI that was used to analyze tweets and solve a crime for the VAST Challenge 2014. Sensemaking is described as the process of collecting, understanding, analyzing, reasoning about, and making decisions with data. It is an exploratory and iterative process. An example concept called SenseMap is presented as a potential "map" to support online sensemaking by capturing the analytic process. The document concludes by emphasizing the importance of sensemaking for big data and the need for better support tools.

- 9. What is Sensemaking? • Making sense of data • Collecting, understanding, analysing, reasoning, and making decisions • It is something we do everyday: • Plan a holiday, buy a house, understand an illness, … • Defence, policing, investment, medical diagnosis, … • The task is usually not well defined • Can’t run a google search or SQL query to find the answer • Involve many different data • Explorative and iterative

- Facebook network, Where the users are and how they are connected. Also interesting is where there is no users: Africa, South America, and Russia/China. Visual Analytics: combines the complementary strength of visualisation and algorithm, to better address analysis needs.
- Various funding sources: EPSRC, dstl, UK Government, EU No, we were not involved in the NSA One example
- Everyone of us does sense making all the time: Start with data collection and analysis Interpret the results: what does the number tell me? Make a decision: plan of actions
- A Sense Making model: Using literature review as an example from search & filter and then jump to hypothesis & presentation. For big data, most focus on the early stages of sense making: we have storage, search, and analysis; Relatively very little on the further stages This is the focus of our research: Not all the stages at the same time yet; Mostly in the defence and intelligence domain.
