Description
D-Map is a novel visualization method to support exploration and analysis of social
behaviors during such information diffusion and propagation on typical social media
through a map metaphor. In D-Map, users who participated in reposting one central user’s
posts are collected and mapped to a hexagonal grid based on their behavior similarities
and in chronological order of the repostings. With additional interaction and linking,
D-Map is capable of providing visual portraits of the influential users and describing
their social behaviors.
