1/ Dear #hivemind... I& #39;m hunting for engaging examples/inspirations of how to visualize #Census/population/demographic data as part of my work with @ONS. Please do share any you& #39;ve seen! I& #39;m going to start sharing some of my own favourites in this thread #dataviz #censusdataviz
2/ DataUSA https://datausa.io/ ">https://datausa.io/">... -- This is like a Wikipedia of data on the US. Get lost browsing through data profiles and charts on places, industries etc etc, all linked to one another, and also do side-by-side comparisons, create your own maps/charts and download data
3/ https://density.website"> https://density.website  -- Another USA example that is based purely on #Census data. Lets you navigate through every small "tract" in the US Census, and shows how each compares to others on various scales. They also have this associated Twitterbot account @everytract
4/ https://onsvisual.github.io/housingaffordability/">https://onsvisual.github.io/housingaf... -- a nice UK example here from @ONS, mashing up population income data with house price data to create mapping of housing affordability down to a very local level
5/ https://kepler.gl/demo/ukcommute ">https://kepler.gl/demo/ukco... -- Last one for today... an impressive #bigdata viz example using #KeplerGL (over 600,000 rows of data), visualizing daily commutes in England and Wales based on 2011 Census data #censusdataviz
6/ https://bothness.github.io/census-livework/">https://bothness.github.io/census-li... -- Inspired by the above example, I put together this interactive map to explore the connections between where people lived and worked in 2011 (the last UK Census). It gets its data from the Nomis API https://www.nomisweb.co.uk/api/v01/help ">https://www.nomisweb.co.uk/api/v01/h... which is free to use
7/ Another project I worked on here that uses population data to generate map-based stories of hundreds of individual communities. The idea is to depict a bigger picture story of geographic and demographic change over time https://twitter.com/bothness/status/1260193061986095104?s=19">https://twitter.com/bothness/...
8/ This week I& #39;m helping to host a discussion on #Census #dataviz with @DataVizSociety. If you& #39;re not a member, feel free to add to the discussion here. I& #39;ll be trying to post the topics and highlights on this thread. Today Q1 on #bigdata exploration... https://twitter.com/bothness/status/1264819229980844032?s=19">https://twitter.com/bothness/...
