Data visualization aids the analysis and interpretation of data by placing it in a visual context using patterns, trends, and correlations. Data visualization is an interdisciplinary field that deals with the graphic representation of data. It is an efficient way of communicating when your data is numerous. Data visualization uses visual elements like charts, graphs, and maps, to provide an accessible way to see and understand trends, outliers, and patterns.

Exploring Data Visualization
The business world is full of data. Using this data strategically presents a company with serious competitive advantages.

You'll learn how to communicate clearly using data visualizing techniques. And you'll gain insight into how to use key design best practices to ensure your visualizations are clearly and accurately telling the story you want them to.
