Abstract

This study aims to analyse user requirement for waterbodies data visualization to help decision making process for the water related issues. The preliminary survey has been conducted at National Hydraulic Research Institute of Malaysia (NAHRIM) as the case study of this research. The methodology used to gather this requirement is by conducting a survey comprises 20 NAHRIM’s staff. The survey is expected to help the researcher to gain more insight on the critical requirement to develop waterbodies data visualization, which will drive the whole research to support the decision making process The results of the analysis indicate a very high demand for the waterbodies data visualization in NAHRIM that holds waterbodies data for Malaysia to help the decision making process.
