Election forecast trackerFlowingData1 Jul 2016 | 3:06 amFiveThirtyEight published their election forecast tracker this week, and it's a beaut. It starts with the standard state map and most importantly the probability of each candidate winning the presidency. But after that, you can look into much detail on a state-by-state basis. They currently give Hillary Clinton a 79 percent chance of winning and Donald Trump a 21 percent chance. I think many interpret this as Clinton is practically a lock, but it's actually far from it. That 21 percent is freakin' high. As much as I want to forget, let's remember that the Cleveland…

Coal Trade Flows MapSankey Diagrams7 Jun 2016 | 7:52 amDrawing Sankey diagrams on a world map to show flows between different geographical location is always a challenge. One of the inherent problems is that large (=broad) arrows may run between two points on the map located very close to each other. Another problem is that one wishes to have the arrows more or less along the actual trade routes, which in many cases is close to impossible (take, for example, ships going through the Panama or the Suez canal). I have shown quite a number of 'Sankey diagram maps' here on the blog, but most of them had shortcomings. Now here is an example that…

How Britain Voted in the E.U. Referendum24 Jun 2016 | 9:18 amBritain voted on Thursday to part ways with the European Union. The vote was incredibly close, and this choropleth map visualization from the NY Times tells an intriguing story. Britain has voted to leave the European Union, a historic decision sure to reshape the nation's place in the world, rattle the Continent and rock political establishments throughout the West. The margin of victory startled even proponents of a British exit. The "Leave" campaign won by 52 percent to 48 percent. More than 17.4 million people voted in the referendum on Thursday to sever ties with the European Union, and about 16.1 million to remain in the bloc. Britons voted on Thursday to leave the European Union. The Leave side led...
Venn Diagram shows Tesla-SolarCity-SpaceX overlap22 Jun 2016 | 9:12 amYesterday (June 21, 2016) Tesla Motors offered to acquire SolarCity for $2.8 billion in stock.

D3 4.0 released29 Jun 2016 | 12:55 amI typically don't care much about code releases, but every interactive chart I make these days uses Mike Bostock's JavaScript library D3.js.

You can pick and choose which parts to use as you see fit. Each library is maintained in its own repository, allowing decentralized ownership and independent release cycles. The default bundle combines about thirty of these microlibraries. More importantly: Small files are nice, but modularity is also about making D3 more fun.

So we Googled our way to 8,000 screenplays and matched each character's lines to an actor. From there, we compiled the number of words spoken by male and female characters across roughly 2,000 films, arguably the largest undertaking of script analysis, ever. Tags: gender equality, movies

Coal Trade Flows Map7 Jun 2016 | 7:52 amDrawing Sankey diagrams on a world map to show flows between different geographical location is always a challenge. One of the inherent problems is that large (=broad) arrows may run between two points on the map located very close to each other.

I have shown quite a number of 'Sankey diagram maps' here on the blog, but most of them had shortcomings. Now here is an example that does extremely well in tackling the issue of Sankey diagram flows on a world map. [See image gallery at...
Lying with Sankey diagrams (6)3 Jun 2016 | 4:38 amI really find it innovative when consulting firms show Sankey diagrams on their website to illustrate their work, and market their services. However, I find it weird when these diagrams violate the basic rules of Sankey diagrams and flows are not proportional to the flow quantity. That doesn't really contribute to build up confidence in their capabilities. [See image gallery at www.sankey-diagrams.com] 'nough ranting … Have a nice weekend!
Water Use in Qingdao, China31 May 2016 | 9:04 amInteresting Sankey diagram on water use in Qingdao, China in 2011. This is from a presentation titled 'Urban water security – Water-energy-food nexus' by Josh Weinberg of Stockholm International Water Institute. Atkins and World Resources Institute (WRI) appear as co-authors. [See image gallery at www.sankey-diagrams.com] Unit of flow seems to be million m³ (百万立方米). Water origin is mainly surface water (455 mio m³) and local ground water (367 mio m³), with some additional (146 mio m³) brought in from Yellow River and Yangtze River. Not sure about the split shown with two green flows, possibly breaking down the water use to urban (city of Qingdao) and province. The middle part...
Lying with Sankey diagrams (5)26 May 2016 | 11:33 pmHaven't posted much in this mini-series recently … not that there would be a lack of Sankey diagrams that have technical defects or simply misrepresent flow quantities with deliberate arrow widths. In this Sankey diagram from a website by AEPC the blue arrow is grossly exaggerated and not to scale with the other flows. [See image gallery at www.sankey-diagrams.com] Flows are in KWh. Energy inputs (solar, fuel for boiler and pumps) on the left. Uses and losses to the right.
Sweden's Energy Balance3 May 2016 | 11:21 pmJulien Morel of the Swedish Energy Agency ('Energymyndigheten') has pointed me to the newly released Swedish Energy Balance for 2014. The publication (available here) has the English version of the diagram on page 4: [See image gallery at www.sankey-diagrams.com] This one is interesting, as it is set up mirrored, to be read from right to left, in contrast to the common way of presenting national energy flows (e.g. here for Australia or here for Iran). Overall consumption was 368 TWh in 2014. Sweden relies roughly one third on nuclear energy, one third on fossil fuels, and one third on renewables (wind, hydro and biofuels). The different areas of the energy system are further detailed per consuming...

A Tufte fix for austerity29 Jun 2016 | 5:03 amTrish, who attended one of my recent data visualization workshops, submitted a link to the Illinois Atlas of Austerity. Shown on the right is one of the charts included in the presentation. This is an example of a chart that fails my self-sufficiency test. There is no chance that readers are getting any information out of the graphical elements (the figurines of 100 people each). Everyone who tries to learn something from this chart will be reading the data labels directly. The entire dataset is printed on the chart itself. If you cover up the data, the chart becomes unreadable! *** Here is a simple fix that resettles the figurines onto a bar chart: Tufte would not be amused by this composition. The...
Raining, data art, if it ain't broke22 Jun 2016 | 5:39 amVia Twitter, reader Joe D. asked a few of us to comment on the SparkRadar graphic by WeatherSpark. At the time of writing, the picture for Baltimore is very pretty: The picture for New York is not as pretty but still intriguing. We are having a bout of summer and hence the white space (no precipitation): Interpreting this innovative chart is a tough task - this is a given with any innovative chart. Explaining the chart requires all the text on this page. The difficulty of interpreting the SparkRadar chart is twofold. Firstly, the axes are unnatural. Time runs vertically, defying the horizontal convention. Also, "now" - the most recent time depicted - is at the very bottom, which tempts readers to read...
What doesn't help readers (on the chart) and what does help (off the chart)16 Jun 2016 | 5:53 amVia Twitter, Bart S (@BartSchuijt) sent me to this TechCrunch article, which contains several uninspiring charts. The most disturbing one is this: There is a classic Tufte class here: only five numbers and yet the chart is so confusing. And yes, they reversed the axis. Lower means higher "app abandonment" and higher means lower "app abandonment". The co-existence of the data labels, gridlines, and axis labels increases processing time without adding information. A simple column chart shows there is almost nothing going on: I suspect that if they were to break the data down by months and weeks, it would be clear that the fluctuations are meaningless. *** The graphical scaffolding, or what Tufte calls the...
Why is this chart so damn hard to read?8 Jun 2016 | 9:15 amMy summer course on analytical methods is already at the midway point. I was doing some research on recommendation systems the other day, and came across the following chart: Ouch. This is from the Park, et. al. (2012) survey of research papers on this subject. It's the 21st century, people. The column chart copies the older-generation Excel design made infamous by Tufte, and since abandoned. Looking more closely, I suspect that the chart was hand-crafted, not made in Excel. There are several challenges of reading this chart. The gaps between columns are narrower than the columns. Only in the last two years do the eight categories all count. So a key task is to learn which column stands for which type of...

Drowning in the Shallows1 Jul 2016 | 7:00 amExpertise is developed through "deep work." This term was coined by Cal Newport to describe the highly-focused periods of concentration that are required, not just to develop expertise, but to do good work in almost any field of endeavor. He defines deep work as: Professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration to push cognitive capabilities to their limit. These efforts create new value, improve your skill, and are hard to replicate. Achievement in almost all fields of endeavor, and especially in all forms of knowledge work, demands deep work. Most knowledge workers today spend their time drowning the shallows. Newport defines "shallow work" as: Noncognitively...
To Err Is Human28 Jun 2016 | 2:16 pmMy revision of Alexander Popes words, "To err is human, to forgive, divine," is not meant to diminish the importance of forgiveness, but instead to promote the great value of errors as learning opportunities. We don't like to admit our mistakes, but it's important that we do. We all make errors in droves. Failing to admit and learn from private errors may harm no one but ourselves, but this failure has a greater cost when our errors affect others. Acknowledging public errors, such as errors in published work, is especially important. I was prompted to write this by a recent email exchange. I heard from a reader named Phil who questioned a graph that appeared in an early printing of my book...
We Must Vet Our Data Visualization Advisers with Care24 Jun 2016 | 11:29 amWhen we need advice in our personal lives, to whom do we turn? To someone we trust, who has our interests at heart and is wise. So why then do we often rely on advisers in our professional lives whose interests are in conflict with our own? If your work involves business intelligence, analytics, data visualization, or the like, from whom do you seek advice about products and services? If you're like most professionals, you unwittingly seek advice from people and organizations with incentives to sell you something. You either get advice from the vendors themselves, from technology analysts with close ties to those vendors, or from journalists who are secretly compensated by those vendors. That's not...
Data Visualization Lite13 Jun 2016 | 2:56 pmIn the world of data visualization, we are progressing at a snail's pace. This is not the encouraging message that vendors and many "experts" are promoting, but it's true. In the year 2004, I wrote the first edition of Show Me the Numbers in response to a clear and pressing need. At the time no book existed that pulled together the principles and best practices of quantitative data presentation and made them accessible to the masses of mostly self-trained people who work with numbers. I was originally inspired by the work of Edward Tufte, but realized that his work, exceptional though it was, awed us with a vision of what could be done without actually showing us how to do it. After studying all of the...
Avoiding Quantitative Scales That Make Graphs Hard to Read24 May 2016 | 1:30 pmThis blog entry was written by Nick Desbarats of Perceptual Edge. Every so often I come across a graph with a quantitative scale that is confusing or unnecessarily difficult to use when decoding values. Consider the graph below from a popular currency exchange website: Source: www.xe.com Let's say that you were interested in knowing the actual numerical value of the most recent (i.e., right-most) point on the line in this graph. Well, let's see, it's a little less than halfway between 1.25 and 1.40, so a little less than half of… 0.15, so about… 0.06, plus 1.25 is… 1.31. That feels like more mental work than one should have to perform to simply "eyeball" the numerical value of a point on a...

Has "Liberty and Justice For All" Become Just a Cliché?29 Jun 2016 | 9:26 amAmerica. The Land of the Free. For hundreds of years, immigrants from all corners of the world have flocked here in search of freedom; freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and even freedom to love and marry whom they please. The United States is the glowing symbol of liberty, with promises of equal rights for every citizen, and the opportunity shape your future in any way that you choose. But how much of this is propaganda, and what is the true reality for Americans? Are we really as free as we would like to believe, or has "liberty and justice for all" become just a cliche? Well, when it comes to justice, in many cases it depends on what you do, and what color you are. For example, despite very...
How Much Does It Cost To Raise a Child? [Infographic]15 Jun 2016 | 3:30 amIt's no secret that children are expensive. Whether you're a two parent household, or a single provider, making sure that each child gets what they need is a definite drain on any parent's wallet. In the US, the average cost to raise a child ranges from a little over $12K to almost $15K each year. That's a lot of resources for someone not quite tall enough to reach the kitchen sink. Housing accounts for about 30 percent of those costs, but unless you planned on living out in the open wild, you would incur that expense anyway. You'll always have to pay for the roof over your head, child or not, but feeding someone else is a choice you want to make wisely. Food costs are the second highest expense when...
History of Abortion Rights In The U.S. [Timeline]8 Jun 2016 | 11:51 amAbortion is a major issue in the US. Where you stand on the topic could be the deciding factor in how you choose your friends, which businesses you support, and how you elect candidates to government. For decades, this controversial issue has been the focus of both politicians and activists alike. Since as early as 1856, several states have been involved in the approval or banning of abortions for mothers in the first trimester, but it wasn't until 1890 that the American Medical Association (AMA) got involved in the matter. This enabled women to seek legal abortions when birth would endanger their lives. Fast forward to 1967, and abortion is a felony in 49 states. Pro life supporters seemed to have this...
A Peek Into America's Favorite Caffeinated Pick Me Up: Coffee16 May 2016 | 9:56 amWhen you reach for a fresh cup of joe in the morning, do you ever stop and think about what it took to get that coffee into your hands? Or how many other people are reaching for their first morning jolt at the same time as you? With all the "hoopla" about coffee in the US, you would think that we're the biggest consumers of coffee in the world. But it turns out that our Dutch friends drink more than anyone else on the planet. And you know what else? Most of the world's coffee is produced in Brazil. That's a long way from plant to cup. When it comes to the biggest coffee consumers here in the US, the 18 to 35 year olds have cornered the market. This is partly due to the rise of coffee shops on...
The Black Mamba: A Look at Kobe Bryant's Life and Career4 Jan 2016 | 11:01 amThere's no denying that Kobe Bryant is a force to be reckoned with on the basketball court, and undoubtedly one of the most talented players to ever grace the NBA. With this being the last season we have to watch the master at work, it's only fitting that we look at the enormous impact he's had on the game. � Back when Bryant was first drafted at age 18, he was the youngest player in the NBA. He started mainly as a bench player, but quickly proved that he was more than average. By age 19, he was the youngest player to start an All Star Game, and went on to win 4 All Star MVP awards. Over the course of his 20 year career, Kobe has racked up a slew of awards and became an NBA superstar, with fans and...

Search Engine Marketing, a Unique Challenge for Franchise Businesses19 Jun 2016 | 1:11 amSearch Engine Marketing, a Unique Challenge for Franchise Businesses The franchise, very much like a government bond, is seen as a safe option in times of uncertainty. It's also a 'safe' option for a wannabe entrepreneur who wishes to become self employed. It's a middle ground where the franchisee benefits from support and an existing brand to promote whilst also being in control of their own success and growth. Only 5% of franchises close every year. The drawback to being a franchise is that you do have to work within an existing brand and this includes restrictions of what how you represent and promote that brand. When you translate this to online marketing it can be magnified by the franchisee wanting to...
The Rise and Fall of SME19 Jun 2016 | 12:41 amThe Rise and Fall of SME Infographics and data visualisation, in their purest form, are charts and graphs. Communicating complicated data in a visual format is the easiest way for the brain to assimilate complex figures. By presenting graphs and charts we can instantly see an overview of where trends lie and help us to translate the data we are presented with. The humble bar chart is one of the most powerful tools of data presentation we have. It may be basic, some may even say boring, but the bar chart, in its minimalist elegance cannot be bettered. Good design is about removing things until you are left with what is essential and The Rise and Fall of SME infographic from companydebt.com is an example of...
The Anatomy of a Terrible Web Host7 Jun 2016 | 11:47 pmThe Anatomy of a Terrible Web Host Finding the right web hosting is a topic of conversation you could throw into a circle of web geeks, stand back and observe for hours. Finding a good web hosting service that doesn't cost the earth (Rackspace) is the eternal search for the holy grail of faster downloads speeds and secure servers. My bug bear with hosting is that your service is trundling along quite happily and then suddenly: a. falls over for not reason, b. starts the intermittent speeds dance or c. slows down to a crawl. You sign up to a small fledgling company who have great customer service based locally and are focused on providing an outstanding service. And then they get bigger. And they expand. And...
What's Cooking in 201630 May 2016 | 6:21 amWhat's Cooking in 2016 Cooking and food are a big passion. I often think that this combined with my love of writing and being the most critical person you could imagine would make me the ideal candidate to be a food critic. An idea that I still consider in idle romantic daydreams. In my formative years I used to bake for pleasure. The student years were a blur of microwave meals and then I returned and refined my palette to begin appreciating the finer foods of life. I started to cook and would spend hours preparing meals for loved ones. My specialities were a crab salad, pea and mint soup, quinoa taboolah and a pear tarte tatin that I still get asked to make. Sadly, now all meals have to be prepped and...
Magento 2 SEO in a Snap30 May 2016 | 12:42 amMagento 2 SEO in a Snap Within SEO realms Magento has a love/hate reaction. I know a lot of coders who love Magento and I equally know many SEOs who hate the spaghetti mess that Magento can create: duplicate pages and canonical nightmares. Personally I think Magento is an amazing platform and did a lot to change ecommerce when it was released. Having worked with the beta version and the early years it was a new and exciting platform with great capability. I have to say that I haven't worked with it for several years now but what I do know is that Magento out-of-the-box is a bloated mess and to get the best out of it you do need an exceptional PHP coder to tease a sleek and efficient running machine out of...

How to Find Great Topics and Data Sources for Infographics30 Jun 2016 | 12:53 pmInfographics are great for summing up a lot of data into a single image that can easily be shared with others. However, going from a blank canvas to a work of art that can potentially go viral and bring a flood of traffic and business back to your site isn't so easy. While there are many self-serve infographic and image design platforms that anyone can use, infographic design isn't as simple as throwing a few images and data points into one graphic. This is especially true if you don't know how to compile the right data and make an engaging design. Also, without a professional look, feel and flow to your infographic, there are limitations on how much viral success you might have. To help with this process,...
How InfographicDesignTeam Creates Amazing Infographics28 Jun 2016 | 12:37 pmInfographics are works of art. Just like how it takes years of hard work and effort to master the work of each individual artist in the world today, the same can be said for graphic and infographic designers. While the concept of infographics may seem direct in their nature, the actual design process and foundation work to get there is quite in-depth. Today we will walk you through the process of how we take client's ideas and turn them into visual masterpieces. This same process takes place whether our design team is working with you clients to create Infographics, Social Media Graphics and Presentations.

10 Reasons to Transform Your Infographic into Animated Video23 Jun 2016 | 8:25 amInfographics are a great way to get your brand and your message out to the masses. But have you ever thought about turning that fabulous infographic into a video too? The idea behind infographics was to cram as much information as possible on a flat one-dimensional page. This was great in some ways, in that people could take their time and study the information at their leisure, so that they could get all of the data in one place, without writing a large amount of text. However, infographics are limited when it comes to viewer engagement. Video captures the attention of people for longer, grabs their attention faster, and may increase sales up to 65% more than other methods, including infographics. When...
Infographic Design Ideas: 4 Niche Markets to Consider21 Jun 2016 | 1:59 pmThe concept of creating an infographic is quite simple — turn boring data into visually pleasing content and something that you audience wants to share. Yes, the concept is clear, but the process of compiling data and creating a successful and potentially viral infographic is not so simple. One of the first things you will need to do when preparing for the creation of your infographic, is to make sure you know what type of data you are going to include, who your target audience is and how you are going to market it to them once completed. These are all extremely important components of a successful infographic. Even if just one of them isn't included in your design and outreach process, it can totally...

Facebook or SEO: Which is Better?21 Jun 2016 | 12:11 pmEvery dollar counts when you're investing into your business. Both Facebook ads and SEO are popular options, but they are very different, and one takes much longer than the other to get results. That's not to say one is better than the other, but it's important to understand the differences between these two methods. It's worthwhile to invest into both campaigns, as Facebook is a very short-term method, while SEO can take months or even years to see results. Facebook Ads can be great to get a business off the ground, but it is not sustainable for every business. A balanced marketing strategy is the best marketing strategy, so it's important not to focus on a single area of your Facebook marketing while...

More Than A Tablet – How Businesses Use Tablet Technology1 Jul 2016 | 1:46 pmMany businesses are starting to support tablets in their workplace. Portability and screen size of tablets are providing great balance for many work related activities such as taking notes. It's true that companies took some time to find out what is the best way of using tablets. Large number of companies are using tablets more for work than a PC. It has been years as of now that Samsung launched their Galaxy tab and Apple iPad, so there's a big number of those devices that have reached the market for consumers.

Manufacturing The Space Economy30 Jun 2016 | 10:01 amIt can still sound like something out of a science fiction movie, but when you consider how fast technology is evolving, I think it's not too crazy to say that space economy is rising and some of the world leaders in the field of tech are starting to invest in it. When you talk about space economy you would immediately think about mining, manufacturing and supplying various things in space. It means using resources and doing activities in space that will provide many beneficial things to humans and create more value in researching, exploring, managing, utilizing and eventually understanding space itself. Private companies are putting their big money into creating new and advanced infrastructures on Earth,...

5 Strange Signs that Economy is Increasing1 Jul 2016 | 4:41 am<ul> <li>A weird favourite of economists is doing better – RV manufacturers accurately predicted the U.S. economy was headed for recession when they noted RV shipments had fallen for the first time in six years. Despite high gas prices now, RV sales have been better of late, partly because people are travelling shorter distances and with less planning a trend being reinforced by rising airfare.</li> <li>More couples are splitting Up – Divorce is expensive. So when the economy took a turn for the worst, unhappy couples ended up putting up with each other for a little longer.

Leading Causes of Workplace Injuries11 Jun 2016 | 11:04 pmRelevancy to your audience should be the first thing you think of when creating content and specifically for infographics. Your goal should be to create something informative that your audience can learn and benefit from. Repurposing content that would otherwise be confusing, uninspiring or lost within the page. Any niche which is considered 'boring' or 'dull' can overcome this by formatting information in a visual manner. Take a body of content that would be dry and tedious to read if it were a wall of text and convert this into a series of illustrations and sections which can be easily skimmed by the eye and information consumed in easy to read bites. Infographics have become a huge market and the volume...
America is Active9 May 2016 | 1:01 amCombining two random ideas to create a new idea is one form of idea generation. It can produce highly innovative concepts with a fresh way of looking at things. Putting one piece of information into context with another helps the brain to understand the information being presented by comparing it to something a person relates to. Information within a story that someone can relate to creates an emotional response in a reader. A person with an emotional connection is more likely to trust a brand or use their product – becuase they feel an affinity with it. Making a connection between running a marathon and home security might at first appear to be a tenuous or bizarre comparison. But, when you stop and think...
Save the Air18 Apr 2016 | 1:19 amWorld Earth Day is on Friday 22nd April. In alignment with this awareness day I have been forwarded an infographic with a subject of 'saving the air'. The fact that we now spend so much of our lives indoors (87% apparently) in practically air tight sealed buildings has attributed to a huge increase in breathing problems such as asthma, allergies and general ill health. The superior healing benefits of spending time outdoors, in fresh unpolluted air is nothing new. Even the Victorians were aware of the health restorative benefits of 'taking the air' at the coast and was often administered by physicians. It also used to be that once-upon-a-day that when spring came round the entire contents of a house would...
Be Safe No Matter Where You Rent20 Jan 2016 | 1:01 amThe key objectives to an infographic are: the communication of information in as efficient and concise manner as possible with the use of graphics and icons. Apart from looking at wether the content is clearly presented, when considering the review of an infographic, I factor in if it's relevant to the target audience (on the site that has authored the piece). After all, infographics produced on websites are tied into content marketing and the aim of content is to serve the audience for which it is intended. I then judge how successful the piece of content is based upon if it meets these objectives. It's easy to create something that looks flashy and maybe with some interaction or animation without thought...
R & R & RVing5 Jan 2016 | 2:57 amThat title might be a bit of a tongue twister but this piece of content is a straightforward look at the world of RVs and their boom in popularity over the decades. A 64% rise in ownership since 1980 is a huge rise and, to me, begets the question: what has caused this? What surprises me the most is that the very first RV was around just over 100 years ago! Would love to see a photo of what that looked like. Although if you consider, the covered wagons of the Pioneers who first ventured into the Wild West could be RVs of a kind? The graphic banner starts with a stunning retro style illustration of an RV zipping along the open road with forests and mountains behind. Highlighting the latent dream of many to...
