General Information

iSonic is an interactive sonification tool that combines the use of both non-speech and speech sounds to present geo-referenced statistical data. The current version provides two types of data representation forms: a map and a table. The map is typically used to show the values of one statistical data attribute, although the values of other satistical data attributes are also available when requested. The region by attribute table can show multiple statistical attributes at the same time. Each table column is an attribute, and each table row is a geographical region. By using a keyboard, a touch pad, or both, you can interact with the data in both the map representation and the table representation. You can easily switch between the map and the table at any time. Auditory feedback is given in both non-speech and speech formats, depending on the information detail level you choose. The visual and auditory representations are strictly synchronized in iSonic.
