Managing Personal Health and Well-being by Integrating Data Streams using Interactive Visualizations

There has been in a rapid growth in the use of consumer health monitoring devices integrated with smartphones that help people to record and analyse data relating to different factors contributing to their health and well-being. However, these factors are often presented separately, making it hard for users to visualise potential relationships among different health data streams, and missing an opportunity to use other information sources available on their devices to contextualise these health indicators. Here we present a practical concept for integrating health and other contextual data with different analytic and visualization tools as the basis for an interactive health and well-being management dashboard.
