In Hans Rosling's presentation on Human Development Trends he shows a scatter plot which explodes in to subsets of data. Does anyone know what software was used to create this presentation? I have played with the gapminder software and trendalyzer already and know that they are not capable of doing this.

Here is a link to the entire slideshow: Gapminder Website

Since your question doesn't involve programming, it is off-topic for this site. It may be a better fit for superuser. If you wait a couple minutes, it will likely be migrated there. – gnovice Nov 16 '10 at 17:49

@fideli - Thanks for the clarification. I am looking for the software that generated the flash. To answer your question about his other software, he is using Gapminder. You can check it out HERE. If you would like to use your own data, Google has adopted the technology from trendalyzer and is available at:

Normally I'd complain that this should be a comment rather than answer, but I see that you won't be allowed to do that yet because it hasn't identified you as the question owner and you have <50 rep. To gain ownership of the question so that you can comment correctly, associate this account with your Stack Overflow account on the accounts tab of your user page (or make sure both accounts can use the same openID when logging in). – Joel Coehoorn Nov 16 '10 at 19:55
Thanks Joel, I was trying to figure out why I couldn't comment. – Zack S. Nov 16 '10 at 20:07

I just got an email back from Gapminder, this presentation was handmade in flash.
