Dynamic Data Visualization

Abstract

In this article, we use four examples to illustrate a variety of techniques for the visualization of complicated data sets. The examples include business data, storm tracking, New Jersey Department of Education records, and classroom observations. The techniques are used to deal with certain geo-spatial patterns and cross-tabulations on the fly. Video clips are referenced throughout to illustrate the interactivity, kinetic actions, and animations of these approaches. The article contains no math and is accessible to all statistics users, including students in high-school AP Stat classes.
