The thing is, it's essential to know what you are looking at first in that set of data. Those answers are probably not going to come from the display tool itself. It could take some time to understand the methods used by the IRAS hardware and software (and the researchers themselves) to image and process the areas. Also what subsequent transforms may have been done on the data and why. In other words, before reasonable deduction there has to be a lot of induction. That inductive step provides the experience necessary for the type of discernment needed to interpret the images and to justify any conclusions.
