Abstract
A system and method for facilitating preservation of context information during navigation of a visualization. An example method includes representing hierarchical data via an orbit visualization; providing a first user option to navigate to a child node selected from among the one or more child nodes of the orbit visualization; and updating the orbit visualization in response to user selection of the first user option, resulting in an updated orbit visualization, wherein the updated orbit visualization includes a parent node positioned at a periphery of the visualization, and wherein the selected child node is positioned as a new central node of the updated orbit visualization. A carousel control may be displayed concurrently with the orbit visualization, wherein the carousel control includes one or more user options to navigate to a previously navigated-to node of the orbit visualization.
