Visualize data with heatmap like a cell

Question

I'm looking for an algorithm or method, that can visualize/create nice diagram from data. The data has size and quality properties (and there are some categorys). I found out that treemaps/heatmaps are good for that. But I need an extreme solution. Something like a cell. I have a good example: https://www.destatis.de/Voronoi/PriceKaleidoscope.svg

Is it possible to generate diagrams like that (with changing data)? Is there an algorithm for that? Where should I look for more information? Is there a program that does something similar to that?

What you want is called a vornonoi treemap. Check out the links on this other stackoverflow post and this paper from SoftVis 2005.

You can make that kind of map via d3.js http://d3js.org/ ,and there is a treemap example http://mbostock.github.com/d3/talk/20111018/treemap.html .
