DBV is specifically designed to visualize the adaptive behavioral changes, as they pertain to the interactions with multiple inter-dependent infrastructures, in the aftermath of a large crisis, e.g. hurricane or the detonation of an improvised nuclear device. DBV is web-enabled and thus is easily accessible to any user with access to a web browser. A novel aspect of the system is its scale and fidelity. The goal of DBV is to synthesize information and derive insight from it; detect the expected and discover the unexpected; provide timely and easily understandable assessment and the ability to piece together all this information.ETDIn CopyrightInformation VisualizationVisual AnalyticsData ModelingNetworked ModelsThesis
