A Tour Through the Visualization Zoo

A Tour Through the Visualization Zoo

 '' The goal of visualization is to aid our understanding of data by leveraging the human visual system's highly-tuned ability to see patterns, spot trends, and identify outliers. Well-designed visual representations can replace cognitive calculations with simple perceptual inferences and improve comprehension, memory, and decision making. By making data more accessible and appealing, visual representations may also help engage more diverse audiences in exploration and analysis. The challenge is to create effective and engaging visualizations that are appropriate to the data. ''
