Networks 3D Visualization Tools for Mac OS X
Networks 3D is a software under development to create and interact with graphically appealing visualizations of large complex networks. Its main objective is to provide means for visual exploration of the data. The software also combines visual feedback with properties calculated or provided. The tool is based on an optimized force-directed algorithm that generates runtime projections of networks in 2D or 3D.
The software currently runs only on Mac OS X and requires an Intel-based Mac. It is currently at BETA stage of development and is distributed under Cyvision Restricted Academic License
