The top chart re-imagines the monthly shipped/delivered line chart pair as a waterfall. Analysis would be performed following the busy season, comparing inbound shipment/delivery schedules (~30 transit times) with Purchasing plans, staffing projections, sales, etc. This is a hypothetical rework of existing charts (normally line and/or bar charts) plotting inbound overseas shipments building up to busy season of a distribution company. Huge thanks to everyone who participated this month and enjoy these waterfalls! The next monthly challenge will be announced on June 1st, so stay tuned for another chance to flex your data viz muscles. png) to we'll work to include any late entries this week (just a reminder that tweeting on its own isn't enough-we unfortunately don't have time to scrape Twitter for entries, so emailing is the sure way to get your creations included).
DATA GUARDIAN SUPER TALENT FULL
To everyone who submitted examples: THANK YOU for taking the time to create and share your work! The makeovers are posted below in alphabetical order by first name (+ last initial when needed we omitted full last names in respect of those who would rather remain anonymous). If you tweeted or thought you submitted one but but don't see it here, email your submission (including your graph attached as. We had a good number of graphs created in Excel this time around (with many utilizing the Jon Peltier method), but we also continue to see a wide spectrum of tools used in the challenge, including Tableau, Qlikview, Python + Matplotlib, R, d3.js, Google Sheets, and even Amy's Play-doh. Steve Wexler, author of The Big Book of Dashboards , showed how a waterfall could used to depict the change in monthly subscribers over the course of a year in an organization. Several readers ( Adam G, Alicia, Jeremy/Sarah and John T) varied the layout for a horizontal view, which also worked well. Catherine, Ligia and Patricia rose to the secondary challenge of adding a call to action to their audience. Let me call out a few highlights. Several readers incorporated annotations nicely into their visual ( Alistair, Arnold and Stela-bonus points to Stela for including a takeaway title!). Many readers chose financial data for their submissions (where waterfalls are commonly used) but with 45 submissions this month, we had a wide range of topics. As always with this monthly challenge, we encourage you to try something new but always consider if the data lends itself to this visual type in practical application. This is a special case of the bar chart: less common but with the right data, super effective at depicting a beginning quantity, subsequent additions/subtractions and an ending quantity. At the beginning of this month, we challenged you to create and share a waterfall chart.
