Seeing results in a full graphics environment

This study focuses on the graphical presentation of advanced application software results. Use of colors, symbols, graphs, and data layering is maximized and illustrated in several examples. The displays are designed to be highly interactive, allow rapid interpretation of results, and highlight trends in application results. Various display formats, from horizontal and vertical bar charts to three-dimensional graphs, are illustrated. The displays demonstrate the graphic capability of the environment, providing the operator with succinct application results at a selectable level of detail and minimizing the number of power system operator actions needed to accomplish the desired task.< >
