Overview

Numerator! Publish is a software package for posting data on the Web in a new interactive format that dramatically speeds and simplifies tasks commonly performed when analyzing data – such as making charts, formatting spreadsheets, and adjusting data.

Unlike static data on the Web today, visitors to Web sites featuring this new interactive data format can create custom charts and tables simply by clicking their mouse. From a standard Web browser, users can add or remove data from their displays, instantly apply equations to the data, transform data views, compare data from different datasets, and share their analysis with colleagues. Since data manipulation is performed online, the need to transfer data to a spreadsheet or employ a chart wizard is eliminated.

Numerator! Publish Features

• Numerator! Publish automatically converts numerical data from Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, SQL Server, and delimited text files into enumerate’s interactive RDL™ format. Templates make it easy to batch and schedule data conversions to take place automatically at specified intervals.
• Four Java applets included with the software enable data providers to post data as an interactive chart, table, chart-table combination, or full-featured display with enhanced analytical capabilities. Since all data manipulation is performed on an end-user’s computer, impact on network infrastructure resources is minimal.
• An Applet Tag Wizard allows data providers to choose colors, chart types and other customized features for the applet displays, which can then be easily pasted into any standard Web page. Users can also select one-click calculations for adjusting their data, such as incremental percent change, cumulative percent change, average, median, normalize, standard deviation, sort – and more.
