Visualises human translation processes in recorded translation sessions as identified by segcats.
All you need is to open viscats.html
in any reasonably up-to-date web browser, such as a recent release of Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. Drag and drop a segmented translation session in CSV format (see below) into the dashed dropdown area or use the Browse button to select a local file to be visualised.
Note that viscats requires no web server architecture. You can simply open viscats.html
locally from the directory you downloaded it into.
viscats is designed to visualise CSV files as created by segcats, but you can use it to visualise any CSV encoded time series data. Make sure that your CSV file has the following three rows:
start
: the POSIX timestamp denoting the start of an event/phase (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time)end
: the POSIX timestamp denoting the end of an event/phasestate
: the name/label of an event/phase
The CSV file can contain any number of other columnts, which viscats will simply ignore.
