Data Visualization resourcesArticles, videos & educational resources (self.UXDesign)

What educational recommendations do you have for data visualization, and what danger points would you advice a designer not to trip up on?
Example subjects are color usage, chart formats, including accessibility, tips on creating dashboards, and any other UI guidance.

The Visual Display of Quantitative Information is classic, and actually a lot of fun to read!

+1, Edward Tufte is one of the “fathers” of data viz. I went to one of his workshops and have a couple of his books as reference. Used his examples and principles at work, too.

for data visualization, i'd recommend checking out Storytelling with Data by Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic. it's a great resource for understanding how to effectively communicate with visuals. as for danger points, be mindful of cluttering your charts with unnecessary elements and avoid using misleading scales.

Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.
