    Abstract
    Information visualization enables people to use their natural tools of observation and processing, extract knowledge more efficiently and find insights they miss when the information is presented in traditional formats. Advanced Visual System's 3D produces tools for developing information visualization. Visualisation has been used in financial companies. Visualization tools are becoming available on the Web via the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML). Internet bandwidth limitations can be overcome through moving the data reading processing from the server to the Web browser
