Protovis

What is Protovis?

“Protovis composes custom views of data with simple marks such as bars and dots. Unlike low-level graphics libraries that quickly become tedious for visualization, Protovis defines marks through dynamic properties that encode data, allowing inheritance, scales and layouts to simplify construction.”

Protovis vs D3?

“Protovis is no longer under active development.

The final release of Protovis was v3.3.1 (4.7 MB). The Protovis team is now developing a new visualization library, D3.js, with improved support for animation and interaction. D3 builds on many of the concepts in Protovis; for more details, please read the introduction and browse the examples.”

Learning Protovis

Protovis examples and documentation is available online if you wish to learn more. We would suggest learning more about D3.js however, as Protovis is no longer being actively developed.

How to display your project in the Data Arena?

Protovis projects can be displayed on a web page. It is possible to access a live site from within the Data Arena. Alternatively, it is possible for you to provide a .html file to load manually.
