Minimalistic mapping with isolines 😍 It shows Europe's average maximum temperature in July. The closer the lines are, the more complex the orography, with large temperature changes in small areas, such as mountain regions. Each step between two thermolines is 2ºC. #dataviz #mapping #rstats

🐟 This is one of the weirder charts in my collection of examples: a set of fish icons to compare funds. I use it when I talk about visual variables. This chart uses SIZE as a visual variable in 15 different ways, to show 15 different aspects of a fund. 1/4
A stylized infographic features fish illustrations to visually represent different investment profiles. Each fish encodes multiple financial characteristics. The fins on its back indicate the region, distinguishing among the Americas, Asia, the European Union, and Africa & the Middle East, as well as whether the market is emerging or developed. The shape of the tail represents the company's market capitalization—small, medium, or large. The size of the fish's eye reflects its performance, defined as the current return as a percentage of its historical maximum. The contour of the fish's body conveys investment style, such as value, core, or growth. Finally, the shape and position of the fish's mouth and side fin signal the sector classification: cyclical (like materials and financials), sensitive (like energy and technology), or defensive (such as healthcare and utilities). A legend on the right explains the full visual grammar, mapping each fish attribute to its financial meaning.

Blessings upon city and county GIS offices that make road and sidewalk polygons available, so that I can calculate just how much of a city has been sacrificed to the almighty automobile. (Looks like about 8% of Cincinnati.)
A map of central Cincinnati showing surface area given to cars (roads, driveways, and parking lots) and to pedestrians (sidewalks, plazas, and parks). The car areas stand out more, especially because of large highways approaching and traversing downtown.

This new Data Vis Dispatch is full of maps – and we love maps. But it also includes annotated lyrics, multiple lines, bracelets (yes!), and complex interactive visualizations. See them on our blog: blog.datawrapper.de/data-vis-dispat…
A split map of Paris's primary urban cluster compares actual and potential walkability. One map shows an ideal distribution of neighborhood services, while the other shows the current reality; a slider allows the reader to uncover one view or the other. Central areas appear more walkable, in dark blue, while peripheral areas are more red, indicating longer walks to amenities.

Published in Bloomberg.Map of power lines connecting Russia and Belarus to the Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Small black crosses mark recent disconnections at the border line; the three Baltic states are severing their connections to the Russian-Belarussian power grid.

End of the year! ✨🎄🎇 So here we've got a special Data Vis Dispatch for you: it comes from the whole Datawrapper team. We're sharing our favorite visualizations of 2024. Take a look here 🎁  blog.datawrapper.de/data-vis-dispat… and tell us: what were your favorites?
Table of the scientific classification of the flower Dryas octopetala annotated with a handmade illustration. Created by Eleni from the Datawrapper team.Screenshot of I “Made a Graph of Wikipedia... This Is What I Found”. Shown is a network graph of all Wikipedia articles and the links between them, resulting in a colourful representation of the world's collective knowledge. Among the most interesting findings are so-called communities, groups of articles that are more closely linked to each other than the rest of the site, represented by the individual colours. Published on YouTube by adumb.This image shows a spectrogram of three sound types: elephant rumbles (mostly infrasonic, red), human speaking (audible range, blue), and bat noises (ultrasonic, yellow and blue), with frequency increasing from bottom to top on a logarithmic scale. Published by Financial Times.Map of downtown Singapore with little 3D butterflies added where butterflies have been spotted in the area. Different colored butterflies represent different species.

I take zero credit for any of this. If it isn't obvious I'm a bit obsessive about following graphic design & data vis. Krisztina Szűcs @krisztinaszucs.bsky.social is behind these and is just astonishingly talented. Krisztina I love your work Few more examples below. PERFECT for the essay tone
The image is an infographic poster titled "bipolar event length and sequence, August-December 2023," designed with a stark, minimalist aesthetic, part of the PL*T PARADE series and credited to lukesteuber.com.

It displays two contrasting wedges, with the larger wedge labeled "6" in orange, representing hypomania, and the smaller wedge labeled "4" in black, representing depression. These wedges are divided by white and orange lines, potentially indicating the fluctuating periods or sequence of bipolar events over the specified months.The image is a creative infographic titled "the signal and the noise," created by Luke Steuber. It features a series of black vertical bars of varying heights against a background that transitions from a scenic photograph into a white space. Each bar has a number at the top, possibly indicating data points. The background photograph shows a tranquil forest scene with autumn-colored trees reflected in a body of water. The months "Jan" to "Dec" are indicated at the bottom of the bars, suggesting a timeline or progression throughout the year. The overall design merges data visualization with natural imagery to perhaps convey a concept or trend over time.The image is a triptych of infographic-style posters with a minimalist design aesthetic, created by PL*T PARADE and credited to lukesteuber.com.

The first poster on the top left shows "activity by hour, daytime average" with a light green upper section and a dark red lower section. A white sun icon is present in the green section, and black vertical bars with numerical values ranging from 67 to 122 represent hourly activity over a red shadowed area.

The second poster on the top right mirrors the first with "activity by hour, nighttime average," with a pale red upper section and dark blue lower section. A white moon icon appears in the upper part, with similar black bars and numerical values indicating activity over a blue shadowed area.

The third poster below spans the width of the first two and is titled "depression jan-dec 2023." It features a muted grey backdrop with a jagged black graph line that dips below the baseline in several places, visually resembling buildings.
