Abstract
We present an improved seeding strategy for sparse visualization of electrostatic fields. By analyzing the curvature of the field lines, we extract points of extremal field strength between charges of different sign and use them to seed field lines, which consequently connect the corresponding charges. The resulting sparse representation can be seen as an extension to classic vector field topology depicting properties otherwise hidden. Finally, by applying our method to a synthetic data set, we show its benefits over previously published work.
