I have always found the data format of graphs to be an excellent display of information. The describing of detail in forms of lines, numbers, bars etc. glued my eyes to the presentation presented to me. This confirmation of my interest in the descriptive information in front of me was a moment gained through the great execution of concepts and details. Now, how is this made possible? The format of a graph should be clear through clear factors such as description, exploration, tabulation, and decoration. Also a proper graph shows data, boldly inducing the reader to think about the substance of its content and not just its method of presentation. A good graph avoid distortion, present many numbers in small space, make large data sets coherent, encourage the eyes of the viewer to compare different components of data, and reveal data at several detail levels from broad overview to the finest structure. When all these important pieces of information are included in a graph, communication between a viewer and a piece of paper, or digital format, can be practical. With this in mind, after going through the article, I learned that there are several key components of possibility that brings an excellent graph into existence. These formats of designs include: data maps, time-series, space-time narrative designs, and relational graphics. To expand on what I’m trying to explain, I will give a brief descriptive opinionated analysis of each design. First off, the data maps design usually display patterns of high volume of data in small space broken down into very fine detail. These types of designs are very interesting to me because sometimes they can have very visual composition that can keep an eye glued to its presentation. Think of how many times you saw a map, and repeatedly looked at it with points of interest. The next design, time-series, is one most fluent in graphic design. Why is this so? This is made possible because a time-series format have great strength and efficiency of interpretation through the instillation of the regular harmony of the inclusion, if decided, of seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, centuries, or millennia. As a matter of fact, in my opinion, time-series is greatly appreciated by viewers because time is an essential that everyone can relate to and have persistent familiarity with everyday. Therefore using this device in a graph is very understandable and easy to observe. After reading the article, I also learned that the design of narrative graphics of space and time is one that’s very effective. It is effective because it enhances the explanation of the power contained in time-series displays. The goal of this type of structure may be to add special dimensions to the design of a graph so that the data are moving over space as well as overtime. This design creates an even greater design opportunity because the presentation of these sources can be visually manipulated. And last but not least, the relational graphics design is a significant one. This is so because not only has it been in rotation for thousands of years, but it replaces the typical latitude-longitude coordinates of a map with more abstract measures not based on geographical explanation. All of these types of designs and the important content of graphs help make life easier through careful organization of presentable data.
