| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this project is to develop a three-dimension visualizing system to show the long-term historical trends of trade. The technology of computer graphics and the facilities of the internet will be used to bring together and display data linking a wide range of countries and goods. The basic trade data for the period 1947-2000 have been derived from the United Nations' Yearbook of international trade statistics. The visualizing system developed for this project employs two tools : one transfers trade data compiled using spreadsheet applications like Excel to standard XML format for universal use, and the other is a plug-in browser software for handling and viewing three-dimensional data.
