Module 3 - Adobe Illustrator and Vector Graphics


The following image represents a focus on using color, line, shape, and contrast to exemplify certain aspects of the map made in module 2. Using vectors in Adobe Illustrator, I created a visualization that features prominent elements of Floridiana, including a text box that highlights one aspect of the data that can be seen on the map.

Module 2 - Geographic Visualizations in Tableau

Image
The following visualization (which can be interacted with here: https://tinyurl.com/publichousinginflorida) was developed based on Housing and Urban Development data for public housing developments in the United States, updated in December of 2023. The visualization represents the average household income (size of the marks) and average rent (shade of the marks) for each development in the state of Florida.  The dataset used for this visualization contains many variables, including number of occupied dwellings and vacancies, percentage of demographic groups in each development (Native American, Hispanic, female head of household with and without children), among many others.  Initially, I found it difficult to organize the visualization, because my impulse was to create pie chart markings based on occupancy. However, this proved difficult. This visualization is the result of a compromise I made with myself to represent some aspect of the data without thinking too hard about ho...

Module 7 - Distribution Analysis

Image
 For this module, we were assigned to create a visualization based on distribution analysis. I created a bar graph based on the mpg table of the mtcars dataset in R. Below is my graph: This graph shows the miles per gallon of each vehicle in the mtcars dataset. A drawback of this graph is that the vehicles are not identified on the x axis, therefore, the graph does not demonstrate the best information on distribution for this dataset.  Here is the code:  data("mtcars") head(mtcars) counts <- table(mtcars$mgp) counts2 <- table(mtcars$wt) counts View(mtcars) barplot(mtcars$mpg, main = "Miles per Gallon", xlab = "MPG", ylab = "count", col = "orange")
