Abstract

A method for facilitating dynamic-transparency chart overlays via a graphical user interface is provided. The method includes displaying, via a client device, the graphical user interface, the graphical user interface including a graphical element to receive an input; receiving, via the graphical user interface, a request relating to an overlay request that corresponds to a visualization of a chart; retrieving data corresponding to the chart; converting the data into a structured data set based on a parameter; generating an overlay chart based on the structured data set, the overlay chart corresponding to a superimposition of the chart; and displaying, via the client device, the overlay chart on the graphical user interface in response to the request.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for facilitating dynamic-transparency chart overlays via a graphical user interface, the method being implemented by at least one processor, the method comprising:
displaying, by the at least one processor via a client device, the graphical user interface, the graphical user interface including at least one graphical element to receive an input;
receiving, by the at least one processor via the graphical user interface, at least one request,
wherein the at least one request relates to an overlay request that corresponds to a visualization of at least one chart; and
wherein the at least one request includes location data that corresponds to the at least one chart, the location data relating to a destination path to a network repository;

retrieving, by the at least one processor via an application programming interface, data corresponding to the at least one chart by using the location data;
converting, by the at least one processor, the data into a structured data set based on at least one parameter,
wherein the at least one parameter includes a time scale; and
wherein the time scale is automatically determined in real-time based on time information that is extracted from the data;

generating, by the at least one processor, at least one overlay chart based on the structured data set,
wherein the at least one overlay chart corresponds to a superimposition of the at least one chart;

displaying, by the at least one processor via the client device, the at least one overlay chart on the graphical user interface in response to the at least one request;
receiving, by the at least one processor via the client device, a manipulation input that corresponds to a user interface element; and
removing, by the at least one processor, the manipulated user interface element and a corresponding at least one data element from the graphical user interface.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, by the at least one processor via the at least one graphical element, at least one transparency request;
dynamically adjusting, by the at least one processor, the overlay chart based on the at least one transparency request; and
displaying, by the at least one processor via the client device, the at least one adjusted overlay chart on the graphical user interface in response to the at least one transparency request.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the at least one transparency request includes at least one opacity level that corresponds to the at least one chart, the at least one opacity level relating to a transparency percentage of the at least one chart.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the at least one opacity level includes at least one from among a user predetermined level and an enterprise predetermined level that is based on a business guideline.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the at least one graphical element includes at least one from among a slider control element, a numerical input element, and a list element that includes selectable options.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the slider control element includes at least one from among a continuous slider that enables selection of a particular value along a subjective range and a discrete slider that is adjusted to a specific value by referencing a corresponding value indicator.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the structured data set includes at least one normalized value set that corresponds to at least one from among an X-axis value set and a Y-axis value set of the at least one chart.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one parameter includes at least one from among a predetermined parameter that is set via the graphical user interface and a dynamic parameter that is automatically determined in real-time based on information that is extracted from the at least one chart.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one overlay chart is generated based on the structured data set and at least one charting library, the at least one charting library relating to a software library that facilitates the visualization of the data.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one overlay chart includes a multidimensional representation of the at least one chart, the multidimensional representation including at least one from among a two-dimensional representation and a three-dimensional representation.

11. A computing device configured to implement an execution of a method for facilitating dynamic-transparency chart overlays via a graphical user interface, the computing device comprising:
a processor;
a memory; and
a communication interface coupled to each of the processor and the memory,
wherein the processor is configured to:
display, via a client device, the graphical user interface, the graphical user interface including at least one graphical element to receive an input;
receive, via the graphical user interface, at least one request,
wherein the at least one request relates to an overlay request that corresponds to a visualization of at least one chart; and
wherein the at least one request includes location data that corresponds to the at least one chart, the location data relating to a destination path to a network repository;

retrieve, via an application programming interface, data corresponding to the at least one chart by using the location data;
convert the data into a structured data set based on at least one parameter,
wherein the at least one parameter includes a time scale; and
wherein the time scale is automatically determined in real-time based on time information that is extracted from the data;

generate at least one overlay chart based on the structured data set,
wherein the at least one overlay chart corresponds to a superimposition of the at least one chart;

display, via the client device, the at least one overlay chart on the graphical user interface in response to the at least one request;
receive, via the client device, a manipulation input that corresponds to a user interface element; and
remove the manipulated user interface element and a corresponding at least one data element from the graphical user interface.

12. The computing device of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
receive, via the at least one graphical element, at least one transparency request;
dynamically adjust the overlay chart based on the at least one transparency request; and
display, via the client device, the at least one adjusted overlay chart on the graphical user interface in response to the at least one transparency request.

13. The computing device of claim 12 , wherein the at least one transparency request includes at least one opacity level that corresponds to the at least one chart, the at least one opacity level relating to a transparency percentage of the at least one chart.

14. The computing device of claim 13 , wherein the at least one opacity level includes at least one from among a user predetermined level and an enterprise predetermined level that is based on a business guideline.

15. The computing device of claim 12 , wherein the at least one graphical element includes at least one from among a slider control element, a numerical input element, and a list element that includes selectable options.

16. The computing device of claim 15 , wherein the slider control element includes at least one from among a continuous slider that enables selection of a particular value along a subjective range and a discrete slider that is adjusted to a specific value by referencing a corresponding value indicator.
