VASTA CHALLENGE | DATA VISUALIZATION
IEEE Mini-Challenge 2 Honorable Mention
The background of IEEE Vast Challenge
The Visual Analytics Science and Technology (VAST) Challenge is an annual contest with the goal of advancing the field of visual analytics through competition. The VAST Challenge is designed to help researchers understand how their software would be used in a novel analytic task and determine if their data transformations, visualizations, and interactions would be beneficial for particular analytic tasks. VAST Challenge problems provide researchers with realistic tasks and data sets for evaluating their software, as well as an opportunity to advance the field by solving more complex problems.
Researchers and software providers have repeatedly used the data sets from throughout the life of the VAST Challenge as benchmarks to demonstrate and test the capabilities of their systems. The ground truth embedded in the data sets has helped researchers evaluate and strengthen the utility of their visualizations.

Introduction
Pororoca is a web data visualization application designed for an environmental problem provided by IEEE Visual Analytics Science and Technology (VAST) Challenge, 2016. VAST Challenge is an annual contest with the goal of advancing the field of visual analytics through competition. In the summer of 2016, I teamed up with three developers, three designers, two data scientists, as well as two supervisors to take two challenges in that competition. This video and article will introduce the challenge I was mainly working on. To our surprise, we won one award, Honorable Mention Award and Sponsor Award at the IEEE VIS Conference 2016.
