Data visualization is a key aspect of data analysis that helps translate complex data into understandable formats. Through visual representations such as charts and graphs, users can efficiently interpret data and make informed decisions.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Theoretical construct: explains a term, principle, or mental model.
What you need to understand to reason about a domain.
Data visualization translates data into graphical forms so patterns, comparisons, trends, and outliers become visible.
Modern data visualization grew from statistical graphics and thematic maps; early milestones are associated with figures including William Playfair and Florence Nightingale. Today analytical tools combine that tradition with interactive exploration.
A visualization maps values to position, color, shape, or size to expose a question. Its evidence depends on data quality, scale, and design; an attractive chart can still mislead.
Values are represented through position, color, shape, or size.
The chart type follows the comparison or pattern to reveal.
Scales and context constrain valid conclusions.
Data visualization makes analytical questions understandable and supports decisions from visible patterns when design and data basis are checked.
