5 Best Data Visualization Projects of the Year
UX Interaction Design January 26th, 2009
Data visualization continues to grow online and in the real world. It
exists as masterful art pieces and amazingly useful analysis tools. In
both cases though it brings data — which is oftentimes cryptic — to
the masses and shows that data is more than a bucket of numbers. Data
is interesting. As we collect more and more data about ourselves and
our surroundings, the data and the visualization will only get more interesting. On that note, I give you FlowingData’s picks for the top 5
data visualization projects of 2008. Visualizations were judged based
on the use of data, aesthetics, overall effect on the visualization
arena, and how well they told a story.
