Automatic analysis of large text corpora produces numerous useful figures which help understanding the underlying corpus data. Usually, the results are presented in the form of tables containing raw data to be interpreted by domain experts. This paper describes an ongoing work on new visualizations and user interface enhancements in Sketch Engine corpus management system which aim at easing the interpretation of the data for both novice users and language professionals.
