Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0211069A1] Image data is generated on a computer having a processing device, storage and a display. A plurality of numerical data units (301, 302, 303) (that may relate to a specific company) are supplied to the processing device. Each of the data units includes a plurality of numerical data items (311, 312) (such as company fundamentals). Data units are selected (321) to identify sets of data items. A three-dimensional world-space (331) is constructed (322) including a two-dimensional plane (332) defined therein. Locations are positioned (323) on the plane with reference to a first substantially linear co-ordinate (x) and a second substantially linear co-ordinate (y). For each of the selected data sets, a geometric object (241) (that may be a cone frustrum) is defined having a first geometric parameter (such as base size) controlled by a firstdata item and a second geometric parameter (such as height) defined by a second data item. For each of the defined geometric objects, the object is positioned on the plane at a first co-ordinate location defined by a third data item and at a second co-ordinate location defined by a fourth data item. A two-dimensional view of the three-dimensional world-space is rendered and said two-dimensional view is displayed.
