Interactive visual analytic tools for forensic analysis of mass casualty incidents using DIORAMA system

In this paper we introduce DIORAMA based interactive visual analytics tools that enable forensic analysis of mass casualty incidents. Using visualization tools we can get an overview of data collections as well as zoom into interesting details and filter datasets by comparing the data items based on some attribute values (e.g. display all the red patients, display the motion of a specific responder). The incident investigators may want (for example) to know not only where the responders are during the incident but also the responders' motion patterns and tasks performed. Other information that can be obtained is the distribution of patients in the disaster site and their mobility patterns.
