The Undeniable Power of Data Visualization and Infographics

The Undeniable Power of Data Visualization and Infographics | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

It’s expected that only 6% of all data (read: information) comes from books and printed materials – the other 94% is digital.


90% of all data has been created and stored digitally within just the past 3 years, which is striking considering human recordkeeping dates back thousands of years!


To top that off, we’re generating about 2.5 quintillion bytes of data daily, which just adds to the amount of data we have available to us.


But the question is – what do we do with the data we collect? Many people (entrepreneurs, business owners, and data scientists) are beginning to visualize it....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

We are generating more data than ever. But what can you do with that data? Data visualization can help engage your audience and increase conversions.

The success of infographics has evolved since that time. Just a few years ago, infographics became extremely popular with the eruption of digital marketing and search engine optimization.


With their popularity came several changes in the way they were presented. Only the best of the best were shared on social media, resulting in higher brand awareness and consumer engagement.

The 18 Best Infographics Of 2014

The 18 Best Infographics Of 2014 | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

You could sift through piles of dense data sets in an attempt to understand the trends and discoveries that emerged in history, psychology, current events, and even fictional dragons in 2014. Or you could look at these infographics, which visualize otherwise overwhelming data as beautiful charts, graphs, and maps.


Co.Design's Infographic of the Day series regularly showcases the best in data visualization, and this past year saw many stellar examples of the power of the well-designed visualization to illuminate information about nearly any subject, from the serious (the daily activities of Congress) to the frivolous (a visual compendium of the world's best dogs).


We couldn't resist promoting Co.Design's own in-house data visualizations: the Great Wheel of Food Mashups and a map of each U.S. state's weirdest eating patterns (we're a bit food-fixated, apparently). Here, our favorite infographics from the past year.

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Co.Design 2014 saw stellar examples of the power of data visualization to shed light on nearly any subject, from politics to dogs. Good reading for fans of infographics and data visualization..
