Finding information in unknown, large data sets is not an easy task, especially if they consist of documents in an unfamiliar domain. A collection of several hundred technical reports has been analyzed in order to organize it for efficient and fluent searching, browsing, navigation and even exploration. We describe a user study on an interactive system - the EFB-Explorer - that visualizes the data set by different attributes to reflect the specific relevance of a retrieved document to a user's query and offers easy-to-use zooming interaction as well as semantic zooming. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
