The goal of this major qualifying project is to explore different methods of sports information visualization. Several techniques and sports are evaluated to determine the most effective methods to convey the relevant information graphically. Four methods of football information visualization are implemented and evaluated: tree maps, graphs, dot maps and glyphs. The knowledge gained from research and feedback is utilized to suggest future work on sports information visualization.
