  4. Visualization of the Week

  5. Requirements for a Data Visualization of the Week • 1. Four or more dimensions of analysis, whether data or annotative • 2. Sufficient annotations to stand alone, without narrative support from any other product • 3. All direct statements in annotations must have passed statistical review • 4. Must comply with good visualization practices which present maximum relevant information with minimal cognitive load • 5. If multipage, must include a front page that presents an overview • 6. If multipage, must include intuitive index • 7. If interactive, must include intuitive controls • 8. Interactivity code must comply with security and browser standards (e.g. browser independence) • 9. Because interactivity – even so simple a thing as animation – comes with a cost in effort and time, interactivity must add value in both understanding and new dimensions of analysis • 10. The image should include Census Bureau branding • 11. Must comply with 508 rules • 12. Must make the dataset behind the visualization available in an excel file (or CSV)
