Perspective (graphical) with one-point perspective. These parallel lines converge at the vanishing point. One-point perspective exists when the picture plane is parallel to two axes of a rectilinear (or Cartesian) scene – a scene which is composed entirely of linear elements that intersect only at right angles. If one axis is parallel with the picture plane, then all elements are either parallel to the picture plane (either horizontally or vertically) or perpendicular to it. All elements that are parallel to the picture plane are drawn as parallel lines. All elements that are perpendicular to the picture plane converge at a single point
Parallel coordinates Parallel coordinates Parallel coordinates are a common way of visualizing high-dimensional geometry and analyzing multivariate data. To show a set of points in an "n"-dimensional space, a backdrop is drawn consisting of "n" parallel lines, typically vertical and equally spaced. A point in "n"-dimensional space is represented as a polyline with vertices on the parallel axes; the position of the vertex on the "i"-th axis corresponds to the "i"-th coordinate of the point. This visualization is closely related to time series visualization, except that it is applied to data where the axes do not correspond to points in time, and
