How we present information matters as much as if not more than information itself
Something a bit more enjoyable for Sunday: two visualisations reminding us that how we represent information is as important as the information itself.
This point is often overlooked. Many visualisations focus on either the Wow! effect (with a sad “So what…” question following as the reader can’t make any sense of the visualisation), or hold powerful information but are unable to make any sense of it.
These two examples illustrate that the way you represent information matters as much as if not more than the information itself.
