Information visualisation of large multivariate datasets presents certain unique challenges. Few tools currently exist to facilitate the interactive display of such information on the World-Wide Web. This paper discusses the representation of multivariate data and the development of an API and an example application to view large datasets interactively in 3D in a web-based environment. This application enables the user to dynamically create and view XYZ scatter charts of student placement information using a web browser.
