All visualizations (except the map) in this project where built with #SveltePlot by @driven-by-data.net. Very nice to work with, offering quite some flexibility in terms of custom marks and responsive adaptation.

Public data is only useful if people can actually use it. After Montréal restored public access to its bike counter data last month, I decided to built a dashboard to explore cycling trends across these counters. 🚲 compteurs-cycliste.r42.ca Regularly updated as new data becomes available.

There are a lot of interesting chart variations in this addendum to the report of the Canadian Climate Institute. I guess, I should read the report to entirely understand them 😅

@albertocairo.com talks about the 20th anniversary of Hans Rosling's TED talk and the impact it had on him — and probably on the whole field. 📊

wow!

This report was a HUGE effort from everyone across the City Intelligence Unit!! Really proud of my team for delivering the design and engineering. This digital release builds on years of development of our #Svelte component library, and London City Data Design System! 🥳 📊 #dataviz

Nice find while travelling in Europe. German version of Atlas de la mondialisation (published by Le Monde diplomatique).

This is not an analytics reporting (...Magritte, get out of this body). But about the post-modern data stack, or how to build the digital analytics solutions of tomorrow... ..a glimpse into what a future digital analytics data stack output might look like. #DataViz #Analytics 1/6🧵

The background radiation of the Internet is noisy. Very very noisy. But sifting through the noise can tell you a lot.

I haven't been here for ages, is this still going? #dataviz people, are you there?

Just realized that I need to rename all occurrences of "Looker Studio" in my portfolio to "Google Data Studio". 🙈 www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

For chart history freaks!!

Nice!

This is one of the best recent summaries of software development in agentic times.

This video is an absolute beauty!

New in SveltePlot: Raster Mark I don't understand yet the full concept, but it allows you too interpolate values to create a raster in image format. svelteplot.dev/marks/raster Kudos to @driven-by-data.net

I made an animated map of ship movements in the Straights of Hormuz using data from marinetraffic.com. Ship track frames rendered using #ggplot, base map created using #gdal, video editing using #ffmpeg, video player written in #svelte. 🎁 www.zeit.de/wirtschaft/2...

When D3 was released in February 2011, it transformed how we build data visualizations for the web and ushered in a new age of unbridled creativity in information design, data journalism, and beyond. Today, it remains the backbone of modern, interactive data viz. Happy 15th birthday, D3 🎂 d3js.org

This new visual start to work out really nice: A Likert scale bar chart with neutral values in the center and automatic calculations of the overall score (in this example: net score). Still a few features missing, but getting there.

Massive update. 👍

The Winter Olympics are almost over. A good moment to look back at the stream of medals over time. The Olympics try to stay apolitical, but this steamgraph still reflects European history, much like cold winters leave marks in a tree’s rings. Created in #PowerBI with: r42.ca/articles/tim...

When running #DataViz workshops, one question that often gets asked is "what's your favourite ever chart?" 📊 So I've started compiling some of the awesome visualisations made by other people that I often share! A very much a work-in-progress, non-exhaustive list: nrennie.rbind.io/fave-data-viz/

📣 NEW! I’ve just released the BIGGEST and perhaps most creative project I’ve ever worked on! “Searching for Birds” searchingforbirds.visualcinnamon.com 🐤 A project, an article, an exploration that dives into the data that connects humans with birds, by looking at how we search for birds.

Nice analysis of a nicely done chart.

😂

Nine volcanoes of Japan. Mt. Fuji is instantly recognisable. The others too, I hope. This took a while to get right. Looks like fancy chocolates, no? Or little LED buttons. #rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale

Fascinating good old times style. ❤️

This is an amazing weekend lecture. 🧡

Nice video showcasing how data visualization can help to bring a point across the audience. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nw6... Using a 3D map showing revenues and expenses of a city (probably made with deck.gl), the author is pretty convincing in telling us that walkable cities are a good thing.

These two visuals are now also available on the Power BI Marketplace and mostly free to use, even without a license. Simple visuals, no coding required like when using the Deneb visual.

Ohhh, this one is amazing. Visual gallery of SveltePlot.

Including Waffle charts!

Installing @processing.org on my new laptop, and @winterbloed.be's classic HE_Mesh library!! Brilliant library! Even the examples are ace! :)

It’s been quite a journey, but I’m happy to share that three new custom visuals for #PowerBI — free to download. AppSource: lnkd.in/e-demPik web: lnkd.in/eBCnUa8G

A fine article on design I found on BS a few weeks ago: www.ft.com/content/e637... And don't miss out on this response letter, which I pretty mcuh agree with: www.ft.com/content/4554... There is no single discipline that can save the world on its own. Great read, #FoodForThoughts

Super nice!

Great to see @driven-by-data.net adding new visual types to SveltePlot: svelteplot.dev/transforms/s... SveltePlot is like Observable Plot, but obviously based on Svelte, what makes it much easier to extent functionalities.

Strong signal - take a break.

😂 It is actually surprising that there aren't any good visual tools out there that know how we use Git. It works so well, until you hit VIM.

Pretty amazed, how well #storybook integrates with #svelte. Using configuration JSON files to create test controls / interactive playground: ✅ check. Everything is super fast. Absolutely fantastic to develop visuals with many variables.

Voilà: is hiring a graphic designer for the first time in 4 years. Rare opportunity to join the team. The job is in Montreal (no remote) and the ad is in French because we work in French and half our projects are in French. Happy to answer questions!

Excellent example to showcase, that AI doesn't understand but just guesses the shit out of it.

Wow, there is even a smoke forecast website now: firesmoke.ca/forecasts/cu...

Looks like the Weather Network has now a new icon when the air is foggy from forest fires... #climatechange

I think the @storybook.js.org team wins the best major announcement page ever price. Stunning. And good that it is like that, because they moved mountains with this release. Kudos to everyone involved!

This was my personal favorite of the Svelte Summit. If you are looking to combine #Svelte and #ObservablePlot for #dataviz projects, this is a must see. According to the author not production ready yet, but something to keep an eye on.

This was one of the best presentation of the Svelte Summit. I'm really looking forward to use Storybook 9 in my next project.
