Modeling and Visualization in Law: Past, Present and Future
Communication between legal experts and laypersons takes place in many contexts related to law: contracts, for example. Visualization can support the communication and mitigate its barriers. In the field of legal visualization different approaches have been discussed, but a common language and standards are missing. This paper aims to identify the status quo of existing approaches and determine directions for the future. It is based on a literature review on IRIS proceedings (1998–2016) to identify the trajectory of the field and a Delphi study to derive trends for research and practice.
