The Data Visualisation Catalogue

This web portal offers a library of different information visualization types, searchable by display type and by function, such as comparisons, distributions, processes, patterns, hierarchies, and more. Visualization types are accompanied by detailed explanations about how they display data, their applications, and common errors and limitations; many also include links to suggested tools to generate such visualizations. Users can also access related tools and purchase flashcards or an ebook of the data visualization catalog. This site may be of particular relevance to educators interested in promoting numeracy among their students, and in developing assignments that challenge learners to analyze or communicate complex global health information through charts, figures, or maps.
