Question
Part 1: Describe different types of visualizations and identify best practices used in various visualizations.
Part 2: There are many types of data visualization tools in the marketplace. Read through this short article that talks about a few of them http://thenextweb.com/dd/2015/04/21/the-14-best-data-visualization-tools/. If you have experience using any of these, or any others, post a description of the tool you use(d) and your likes/dislikes and compare it to what you have worked through using Tableau.
Explanation / Answer
Types of visualization:
1D/Linear
2D/Planar (incl. Geospatial)
3D/Volumetric
Temporal
nD/Multidimensional
Tree/Hierarchical
Network
1D/Linear:It is list the data of items organized by the single feature.
2D/Planar:Different types are there choropleth,cartogram,dot distribution map,Proportional symbol map,
contour/isopleth/isarithmic map,dasymetric map,self organizing map.
3D/Volumetric: example of this 3D computer models,surface and volume rendering.
Temporal:timeline,time series,connected scatter plot,gantt chart,stream graph,arc diagram,
polar area,sankey diagram,alluvial diagram.
nD Multi Dimensional:Pie chart,histogram,wordle tag could,unordered bubble chart,bar chart,tree map
scatter plot,bubble chart,line chart,step chart,area chart,heat map,parallel coorinates,radar/spider chart
Tree/Hierarchical:
general tree visualization,dendrogram,radial tree,hyperbolic tree,tree map,wedge stack graph,icicle/Partition chart.
Netwrok:
Matrix,node-link diagram,dependency graph/circular hierarchy,hive plot,alluvial diagram,subway/tube map.
Best Visualization is 1D/Liear.
