Welcome to the Open-Field-Data-Vizualization wiki!

These data visualization plots can ideally be generated from csv files generated by AnimApp [https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-48841-7] (Rao et al., 2019):

Animapp is a cross-platform package to analyzes the movement of an object in a video. It leverages the powerful OpenCV framework to analyze videos and extract position information in each frame. This can be used in the field of biological research to track the movement of small animals and measure parameters such as distance and velocity.

The idea for these plots comes from the Guggenheim Museum, where the z-axis represents time and the x and y axis represent the points at which these objects are on an x-y plane.

Generating these plots allows you to visualize the paths of these mice in a 3d scatterplot and highlight particularly interesting paths. Mice that loop around in circles, for example, will show a spiral-like path on one of these Guggenheim plots.
