The developed models and technique of visualization are used for selection of methods of data collection, normalization, preprocessing and representation. The individual components of the proposed visualization system are described using set-theoretic models. To analyze the operability of the developed models and methodologies a software prototype of the visualization system is developed and experiments are conducted.
