Excited that our group will be presenting two talks at the ICA #EuroCarto2026 in Brno: Paula Mennerich will talk about new approaches to mapping election results & I’ll share insights on communication of uncertainty in journalistic maps. See you in Brno! eurocarto2026.org viulab.haw-hamburg.de

Wahlkarten zeigen i.d.R. nur Gewinner-Parteien, auch für die Zweitstimmen-Ergebnisse. Mit Grid-Cartograms können wir auch die Stimmenanteile der Parteien je Wahlkreis anzeigen, hier für die Landtagswahl BaWü am 8.3.26: viulab-hh.github.io/e2maps-bawue/ 🚀 Feedback willkommen.

our workshop "uncertainty visualization in data journalism" at univ. of applied sciences hamburg brought together data journalists to reflect on how uncertainty is handled in journalistic work and how it can be communicated more effectively. 🚀 thanks to all who contributed their time and insights!

Still obsessed with this German stats textbook explaining that linear regression is like fitting a large sheet of paper through a swarm of bees.

Nach dem Totalversagen in Sachen #WissZeitVG versucht das BMBF jetzt auch noch die Wissenschaftsfreiheit abzuräumen. Wie viel Schaden wollt Ihr dem Wissenschaftsstandort D eigentlich noch zufügen? 🤯 Und all das in Zeiten, in denen wissenschaftsfeindliche Kräfte weiter an Boden gewinnen. Unglaublich.

2023 was the warmest year on record globally by a large margin. Another dark red stripe gets added, though I think I need a new colour. #ShowYourStripes

this is probably the most impressive data story i have ever seen. a masterpiece for a very sad occasion. the brushstrokes as a leitmotif for long covid related symptoms are simply brilliant.
