Illustrating Transition Scenarios to Renewable Energy in Hawaii with ProjecTable

Creating engaging and immersive data visualization tools has become increasingly significant for a wide range of users who want to display their data in a meaningful way. However, this can be limiting for individuals with varying levels of coding expertise. There are specific needs, such as visualizing complex data in easily understandable ways, highlighting real-world problems, or telling a story with data. The Makawalu Visualization Environment (VE) package aims to address these needs through three distinct modular tools: Author, Presenter, and Editor. These tools work together to facilitate different use cases based on the user's requirements. This paper discusses the latest version of the ProjecTable and focuses on the design and usage of the Makawalu VE Author and Presenter tools.
