Claim:
1. A data visualization system for generating three-dimensional (3D) visualizations of a multidimensional data space, comprising: a display device; and a computing system, comprising: wherein the 3D data visualization application further directs the processing system to: receive at least one updated mapping of a data dimension to a visualization attribute; determine updated visualization attributes for the set of 3D objects based upon the selected mappings of data dimensions to 3D object attributes, where the updated mappings of data dimensions to visualization attributes determine a location for each visible 3D object within an updated virtual space; generate trajectories for the set of visible 3D objects from their locations in the virtual space to their updated locations in the virtual space; and interactively render animations of the movements of 3D objects along their generated trajectories from their locations in the virtual space to their locations in the updated virtual space from viewpoints determined based upon received user input.
