    The document compares infographics and data visualizations. It notes that infographics target lay audiences and have low complexity, often include narratives or storytelling, and aesthetics. In contrast, data visualizations can vary widely in complexity from simple to complex, may or may not include narratives, and focus on communicating data versus design. The document also explores other differences such as interactivity, use of metadata and graphics, and time taken to complete.
