This discipline, although in no way new, has been completely disrupted by the innovations of the past decade. As a result, it has developed in two main directions: the representation of increasingly voluminous and complex data, and the creation of innovative ways to display it. Tableau, Data Studio (Google) and Qlikview are examples of data visualisation and dashboarding softwares.
Data visualisation
Data visualisation, or “dataviz”, is a discipline that consists in finding the best way to represent large sets of data graphically in order to communicate information.
