Standard HyperAtlas is totally interactive. It works with three sets of parameters that are linked to one or more maps. At any time, the user can change the different input parameters, and the linked maps are immediately updated. The user may also individually configure each map, for instance:

the number of equivalence classes
statistical progression (arithmetic or geometric)
the pallet of colors
etc.

This set of features allow to generate a very accurate collection of maps.

As shown on Figure 6.1, StandardHyperAtlas Applet fills the full width of the browser window. A "Back to dataset" link at the top of the page allows the user to be redirected to the Standard HyperCarte Web Application "Dataset" page. The main components of the Standard HyperAtlas frame are:

a menu bar
the parameters panel threefold boxes:
- Area and Zoning to select the geometric parameters of the analysis;
- Indicator to select stocks or pre-defined ratios;
- Contexts for the deviations to select the references of computed deviations.
a main panel composed of the generated maps
