Abstract: In order to explore the optimal visualization display mode of coal safety management time series data, this paper selects 7 visualization graphics to carry out eye movement experiment based on different data dimensions and management task types of time series data, and records 3 eye movement indexes of subjects as experimental data, and uses spss19.0 software for data analysis. The results show that: the line chart shows the best effect during displaying the trend task of multi-dimensional data; the spiral chart shows the best effect during displaying the cycle and cycle task of two-dimensional data; the scatter chart shows the best effect during displaying the numerical point recognition task of two-dimensional data.
