Take a look at one of the famous examples of data visualization that comes from Charles Minard, a French Civil Engineer, who used visualization to capture the story of Napoleon’s march (and subsequent retreat) to Moscow. Augment human perception by using proper graphical vocabulary, utilizing white space, and avoiding unnecessary clutter. You don’t have to become a graphic arts expert to do better data visualization. People who are focused on marketing and artistry often miss the opportunities of effective data visualization that actually helps a company thrive. Visual perception evolved to do faster and better thinking and the same can be applied in business.
