Visualization challenge winner announced on Visualizing.org
Great news after returning from my holidays: I took the win in a visualization challenge! My interactive visualization of the ecological footprint and biocapacity was part of a challenge where participants were asked to visualize “the value of nature”.
The judging panel appreciated my interactive visualization for:
- easy understanding: comprehensive and fun information exploration,
- originality and style: easy navigation and compare features.
Read more about the challenge on the sites of Bank of Natural Capital and Visualizing.org.
Here I would like to thank the open source and internet community for helping me to win this challenge. Without all the information on visualization and open source software I would not have been able to visualize what was in my mind. A special thanks to:
- Dmitry Baranovskiy for developing the RaphaelJS Javascript library,
- BackSpace.com for sharing the World Map in SVG, and
- Cynthia Brewer for creating great color schemes.
Congratulations on winning the TEEB challenge.
