Example of how you use data mining/visualisation to solve a problem
4. Give an example of how you use data mining/visualisation to solve a problem?
The human brain processes visual information better than it processes text — so using charts, graphs, and design elements, data visualization can help you explain trends and stats much more easily.
Data visualization allows you to organize data in a way that's both compelling and easy to digest.
Some examples of visualization that solve problems:
A Guide to Who is Fighting Whom in Syria:
Relationships among many different groups can be difficult to understand — especially when there are 11 of them, many of which are on the same side as groups they're normally at odds with, and vice versa.

Most Valuable Sports Franchises
Here's an example of telling a deeper story by adding data. The interactive visual lets users see the number of years each team has competed, as well as number of championships won. This offers a more comprehensive view of each team’s history and success as a franchise.
U.S. Wind Map
Here's a visual similar that shows the wind speeds and directions in the U.S. in real-time back in 2015.
It's a great example of intuitive design: Speed is represented by lines moving slowly or quickly, and direction is represented by which way the lines are moving.
