Abstract

Financial institutions survive on the ability to collect and react to data. Today´s financial community is bombarded by massive amounts of information from real time data-feeds, risk management systems, and other intelligent sources. The large quantities of numerical data are virtually impossible to understand quickly. Humans have the ability to understand pictures instantaneously. Thus, by converting data into pictures, and using colour, size, shape, and pattern to define relationships, individuals can rapidly process complex Information.
