R and Interactive Visualizations
I think you will need to do this in a web page running java. So you need a way to link your R stuff to java, possibly back and forth depending upon exactly what you end up doing. You've found some pages already. But look also at shiny and d3. http://www.rstudio.com/shiny/ http://d3js.org/ And there are other flavors. It mostly depends upon whether you want to write the java or let a package do it for you. Others may have better ideas. Bryan

Dear All, I use several R libraries (ggplot2, igraph etc...) for producing static visualizations. However, I'd like to be able to go beyond this. Things I may like to be able to achieve (relying on R as much as possible): 1) network visualizations such that when you click on a node, you see its properties and the network layout centers on that node 2) geographical plots (e.g. European countries colored according to their GDP and the possibility to see some other metadata when I click on one of them) 3) being able to select/deselect some dataset in a conventional plot (e.g. multiple stacked histograms) and so on and so forth... I did some online research and came across potentially many resources like http://bit.ly/18dkX1P http://bit.ly/18dkXPF http://bit.ly/1jsksk4 http://bit.ly/1jskyrO but I honestly have no idea about where to start from. Making the interactive visualizations available on a website is a logical second step, but first things first. I am sure that plenty of people on this list have a strong expertise about the interactive visualizations, so any suggestion is welcome. Cheers Lorenzo
