Data Visualization

Select any example of a visualisation or infographic, maybe your own  work or that of others. The task is to undertake a deep, detailed  ‘forensic’ like assessment of the design choices made across each of the  five layers of the chosen visualisation’s anatomy. In each case your  assessment is only concerned with one design layer at a time.

For this task, take a close look at the data representation choices:

1. Start by identifying all the charts and their types
2. How  suitable do you think the chart type choice(s) are to display the data?  If they are not, what do you think they should have been?
3. Are the marks and, especially, the attributes appropriately assigned and accurately portrayed?
4. Go  through the set of ‘Influencing factors’ from the latter section of the  book’s chapter to help shape your assessment and to possibly inform how  you might tackle this design layer differently
5. Are there any  data values/statistics presented in table/raw form that maybe could have  benefited from a more visual representation?

Note: Please answer all the questions in detailed in APA format. Also see the link http://book.visualisingdata.com/chapter/6
