Tableau, Travel and Triathlons
For week 41, Andy chose a dataset about donations accepted by political parties, published by the electoral commission. The visualisation is an interactive Tableau dashboard, but it’s far from best practices and screams for a makeover
For week 40 I chose a rich dataset with a simple viz showing population predictions for London.
For week 39 we are looking at eviction notices for San Francisco, leading to tenants having to vacate their homes. The original article investigates possible reasons for these evictions and finds strong indications that evictions – for whatever reason – may be linked to the tech boom and the desire by landlords to cash in on the influx of high-paid tech professionals.
This week #MakeoverMonday is collaborating once again with the team of the SDG Action Campaign ahead of the Global Goals week during the UN General Assembly.
There is a dataset we’ve had in our backlog for months and I’m excited that Andy decided to use it for this week. It’s about book checkouts at the Seattle Public Library, particularly those of work by James Patterson.
September 1st is the first day of autumn, meteorologically speaking. So I picked a dataset about how Americans feel about the different seasons.
The original viz and data comes from YouGov.
For week 35 Andy picked a dataset about gaming and the shift from PCs and consoles to mobile.
I recently finished the book Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport. It’s brilliant and I highly recommend it.
So this week we’re looking at cellphone use by American teens and their parents.
This week we’re looking at a viz and data collected by Spencer Philips Hey, who brought together years worth of data about clinical trials and all their published details.
By now we all know that the environment and how we treat it is something we can’t ignore any longer and we seriously need to change what we’re doing if we want our children and grand children to have a livable planet.
