Abstract
In recent years, visualization design has received increasing attention from researchers and practitioners in a number of different fields, including statistics, computer science, cartography, business intelligence, information science, library science, journalism, medical and health informatics, and education. Research conducted throughout the past couple of decades has led to the development of many principles, guidelines, and heuristics for visualization design. Additionally, many techniques—such as treemaps, streamgraphs, heatmaps, and parallel coordinate plots—have been developed. Such techniques complement the set of long-standing and familiar ones such as scatterplots, line and bar graphs, and Venn diagrams.
