S patial metaphors are a popular approachto visualizing information in such forms as information worlds, information spaces, and cyberspaces. Spatial metaphors can also describe user interactions with these products—for example, navigating the WWW, traversing document spaces, and flying over information landscapes. These expressions reflect an intuition that users can explore and understand abstract information spaces as if they were real geographic spaces. According to the distance-similarity metaphor1⎯one of the most popular spatial metaphors in information visualization⎯similar entities in a display should be placed closer together because users will interpret closer entities as being more similar. Explicit or implicit belief in the dis
