Summary:Disclosed herein is a system and method for allowing a user to zoom in and out on a large data set and maintain resolution and understanding on the data. The system monitors how the user uses the data and also detects the user's actions with respect to zooming on the data. Based on the user's interactions and the type of data the system determines for each zoom level what data to display to the user on the display and if the display needs to be modified to maintain usability of the data. In some scenarios a display management component may change the format of the data such that the user may better understand the data.
