Extended abstract: Best practices for data visualization

摘要

Data visualizations incorporate effective data representation strategies to integrate, unify and standardize data coming from different sources. Well-designed visual representations provide visual access to huge amounts of data in easily ingestible chunks. This promotes increased usage and enhanced learning, and facilitates better task performance. Our goal, therefore, was to provide business analytics stakeholders with a comprehensive report on what constitutes the best practices for data visualizations, so as to inform design strategies that foster insight and sense-making.
