TreeMap visualization

[apjanke]

TreeMaps, dude. The data visualization, not the Java java.util.TreeMap data structure. Make it happen.

This is probably a bizznatch to implement in native Matlab, so probably pick a Java or .NET tree mapping library (or write your own), and build on top of that. Or maybe now that Matlab graphics/GUI is changing to web tech, find a decent JavaScript implementation and use that.

Existing other Matlab implementations:

• Treemap on File Exchange
