In particular, Gapminder Desktop is aimed to teachers and students to bookmark and present global trends in all sort of situations. It comes preloaded with 600+ indicators on health, environment, economy, education, poverty, technology, and so on.

Cet article a été partagé 5 fois sur les réseaux sociaux. Les données statistiques environnementales, démographiques et économiques ont cela de passionnant qu'elles sont toutes plus ou moins fortement corrélées entre elles : l'accès à l'eau potable a une incidence sur l'espérance de vie, la contraception dépend en partie du niveau d'éducation ou encore la quantité d'émission de CO2 est liée à la consommation de carburant. Imaginez maintenant que ces données soient en plus rendues accessibles par année et par pays et qu'il soit possible de visualiser l'ensemble sous la forme d'une représentation graphique animée : compte tenu de l'infini des combinaisons à tester, des interactions improbables à découvrir, on entre d'un seul coup de plain-pied dans l'exploration statistique multidimensionnelle .Afrique subsaharienne : territoires et conflits

Next to its sexy visualization for-the-masses called Many Eyes , data- crazy IBM has some more serious clientèle to cater for. Its "ILOG Elixir development team" shows off the data rendering capabilities of Adobe Flex through the online demonstration World Factbook Dashboard [ibm.com]. The heavily stylized application contains various gauges, 3D column and pie charts, a radar chart, a treemap and a world map view, which are all coordinated and synced through some very smooth animated effects. The different views also allow for the dynamic, user-driven scaling of the color legend, while countries can be compared by those in their immediate neighborhood. Exploring such data-rich dashboards seem to provide me with a weird sensation I cannot put my finger on. Is it information-interaction-overload?

Google public data
Google Public Data Explorer [google.com] is yet the latest entry in the ongoing race to democratize data access and its representation for lay people. Similar to Many Eyes , Swivel , Tableau Public and many others , Google Public aims to make large datasets easy to explore, visualize and communicate. As a unique feature, the charts and maps are able to animate over time, so that any meaningful time-varying data changes become easier to understand. The goal is for students, journalists, policy makers and everyone else to play with the tool to create visualizations of public data, link to them, or embed them in their own webpages. Embedded charts are also updated automatically, so they always show the latest available data.
