Say you have a cross section of an electric field, and you want to make a visualization, not just of the magnitude, but showing each 3 components (negative and positive). What kind of colour transfer function scheme would you think is best in order to show the information that a physicist would be the most interested in, in the most effective way?

BTW, I wasn't sure where to post this, so feel free to move it if it's in the wrong place. Thanks.
