For this week, I created a quick makeover using Datawrapper. My aim was to allow easy comparison between the 10 waste sources. I chose to use the trusted old bar chart.
The challenge with stacked bar charts is that if there is something interesting happening further up the stack, it becomes difficult to see because it is stacked on top of other things that are also changing. In this chart, with 7 different colours, it is hard to understand what's going on.
We sometimes come across a dataset that stumps us. The Philadelphia Real Estate Transfers was one such dataset for me. Inspired by Eva Murray's work, I decided to use a cycle plot here.
My aim with this makeover was to create a chart that shows the relation between Obstetrics Fistula (OF) and lifetime maternal deaths in various countries.
Sometimes we need more than one chart to communicate our message. This makeover is a good example of how one chart may be inadequate to convey the whole story.
My aim with this makeover was to declutter the chart and show 3 pieces of information - installed capacity, investment and number of homes powered by Wind Energy.
The original shows 297 hours in executive time. I wanted to answer the question what percentage of each workday does Trump spend in executive time?
