3d network from spreadsheet
Jul 20th, 2009, 7:57am
 
Can anyone please suggest any examples or open-source sketches that would show how to take data from a spreadsheet or text file and create a 3d network based on that data?

Given a spreadsheet/text file of ~1000 incidents w/ 5 columns of attributes for each incident. I'm thinking along the lines of displaying based on column 2 or column 3, or being able to edit the sketch to change the weights of the columns' influence on the display.

Thanks...

I'd parse the file with a loadStrings();
Then plot them out, perhaps with something like Traer Physics plugin.

Wow! Very cool stuff. The "random arboretum" looks promising. Thanks.
