1. DATA VISUALIZATION
Jodie Adams

2. SUMMARY
My project will look at different types of data visualisations and
determent, which is more popular. It will take data from a
Facebook group called „Information Aesthetics‟ which is linked to
blog where people post links to their visualisations they have
made. I will determine which visualisation are the most popular
by how many likes, comments and shares each of them have. I
will display the information I have found in a visualisation.

6. SCIENTIFIC VISUALISATION
„There is the very basic type of visualisation, this includes things like charts and simple diagrams.
These are mostly used in teaching or when presenting statistics.‟

7. THE MIDDLE VISUALISATION
„The next type of visualisation uses both writing and pictures to get the information across. This is a more
common form of visualisation, we see this in our day-to-day lives. It is used for such things as maps, the
weather, more complicated diagrams and to show trends‟

8. ARTISTIC VISUALISATION
„The last type of data visualisation is used for artistic purposes. These tend to be pictures that use data to
create them, even though looking at the end result it is not possible to tell that data was the reason for the
artwork.‟
