InfoVISION: Information Video Simulation Imagery ON demand

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at General Overview on January 1,1995. Foils prepared June 1,1995

This is a generic description of the concept of InfoVision and some of NPAC's activities in this arena through the close of 1994. It is does not describe the detailed projects in the Living Textbook and WebServer arenas.
It starts with a standard description of the NII and the consumer forces driving its deployment. We argue that this provides an opportunity for several other application areas to exploit and in fact eventually build a larger and more convincing business case for the NII
Several examples are given of the dissemination of Text, Video, Image, scientific simulation , GIS, distance learning with the NII and its use for collaboration activities. Education, Health care and Wall Street are used as examples.
We summarize the demonstrations and technologies prepared for Hillary Clinton's visit on April 5,1994.
