About this workshop

The ever-increasing computational capacity has enabled us to acquire, process and analyze larger data-sets and information. Data visualisation is a science and an art which can compress and encode data in ways to aid the human capacity to comprehend, retain and make data-driven decisions.

Interactive data visualisation takes this to another level by allowing us to go beyond visual abstraction and the bounds of physical or pixel space. There has been exciting developments in the tools space for rapidly creating interactive data visualisation over the last few years. Therefore most data analyst and data scientists can now use open source tools in JavaScript, R and Python to create these. At the end of this bootcamp, you too will be able to create interactive data visualisation using these open source tools.

Takeaways

  • Learn the principles of interactive data visualisation including grammar, types, colour, annotation, flow, animation, interaction etc
  • Understand different approaches - static graphics, web based interactive graphics, interactive data products - for creating data visualisation
  • Explore using visualisation in different statistical context - exploration, modeling, and communication to gain insight from data
  • Gain an experience of using simple tools like visdown - interactive for creating data visualisation for exploration and communication.
