Editor's Notes
- Hello!
- Main goal of the data visualization is to communicate information clearly and effectively through graphical means. It doesn’t mean that data visualization needs to look boring to be functional or extremely sophisticated to look beautiful. So both aesthetic form and functionality need to go hand in hand.Information design is all about the psychology of how users access, learn, and remember information; the impact of colors, shapes, and patterns is huge.
- One look to the picture is enough to understand how much each country spent during Olympics.Over time web technologies have evolved to give you the ability to create new generations of useful and immersive web experiences.Today's web is a result of the ongoing efforts of aweb community that helps define these web technologiesand ensure that they're supported in all web browsers.The color bands in this visualization represent the interaction between web technologies and browsers, which brings to life the many powerful web apps that we use daily.
- D3.js is a JavaScript library for manipulating documents based on data.It helps you bring data to life using HTML, SVG and CSS.D3’s emphasis on web standards gives you the full capabilities of modern browsers without tying yourself to a proprietary framework, combining powerful visualization components and a data-driven approach to DOM manipulation.Selectors are defined by the W3C Selectors API and supported natively by modern browsers. It is possible to have dynamic properties as well by providing function instead of just color code.D3 is not a new graphical representation. Unlike Processing, Raphaël, or Protovis, the vocabulary of marks comes directly from web standardsFor example, you can create SVG elements using D3 and style them with external stylesheets.
- Data Visualization on the Map is probably the biggest subsection of all visualization types. Neighborhood maps are one of the most frequently used maps in infographic style visualizations.Color is the important part to these maps.A color scale is assigned to categorical or numerical data, and the value for each region is used to color the region. These maps usually use political boundaries as the regions (countries, cities, etc.)
- Sometimes it’s not possible to show all geo data at onceSimilarity is defined by distanceEach cluster has a color and number depending of how many points fell into that clusterNokia Maps API now supports that !
