Data visualization
• Converting data into visual
presentation by using charts
and graphs

Basics Concerns
• Types of data
• Appropriate visualization tool
• Labelling & Explanation of data
visual
Why we Visualize data?

Create Ease in Understanding complicated

data

Quick Gap analysis : zone of failure and success

Outline relationship, pattern and trends

Useful as communication tool for diverse

audience

Graphical Visualization: Bar Chart

Bar Chart or Column Chart

• Compare frequency of categories
• Category bar on X-axis separated by
uniform space
• Frequency per category on Y-axis
• Vertical is most popular, yet it can be
horizontal
Graphical Visualization: Histogram

Histogram
• Compare distribution of
numeric data
• Use Bin in place of bar
― Bin is interval or class
• Bins on X-axis without any space
• Bins can’t be reordered as data is
continuous or non-discrete
• Frequency per category on Y-axis
Graphical Visualization: Pie Chart

Pie Chart or Circle graph

• Frequency of data visualizes in terms of
angle of a pie
• Each pie represent a part of total
• Angle of pie is proportional to frequency
of data
• 100 % = 360o of circle
• Easy replacement for Bar Chart
― Use to compare categories
