Hi Guys, I understand your concern, and yes, 3D is not a panacea. But there are some studies that show when it is also displayed in 3D stereo path following tasks can be more efficient than in 2D. Not a universal thing, but some hints. I think to a large extend it also depends on your display device. Just displaying a 3D model on a 2D screen is not going to be much better. My display device is a little different: http://assets. inarkansas.com/66594/ualr-vr2-110.JPG ;) But thanks for the answer!

I would say that it can be helpful when you can interactively 'fly through' your data. It is possible to use a 'flying' interface with a game engine type backend to allow interactive exploration of massive datasets. In my opinion that is the kind of thing you see in movies, but is hardly useful in the real world. A network that looks like a huge hairball in 2D will also look like a hairball in 3D.
