数据可视化被定义为使用以图形或图片方式呈现的数据。虽然数据可视化并不是一个新概念，但任何人都可以轻松创建数据驱动图表，图像或视觉效果，这促进了它的发展。免费数据源的增加以及社交媒体上对用户创建内容的需求也导致了数据可视化的普及。本专栏将探讨什么是数据可视化以及目前如何使用它。它还将讨论的好处，潜在的问题，并在图书馆使用。包括可视化指南的简短列表。
Data visualization is defined as the use of data presented in a graphical or pictorial manner. While data visualization is not a new concept, the ease with which anyone can create a data-drive chart, image, or visual has encouraged its growth. The increase of free sources of data and need for user-created content on social media has also led to a rise in data visualization's popularity. This column will explore what data visualization is and how it is currently being used. It will also discuss the benefits, potential problems, and uses in libraries. A brief list of visualization guides is included.
