Information Visualization is defined as the communication of information using graphical representations. It has become part and parcel of our everyday life as well as research purposes, helping people tremendously in information understanding. Although an effective visualization is very useful for the user, a poor visualization will hinder the user’s understanding of the information, and may even deceive the user. The main goal this project is to collect a sample data and visualize it effectively. In order to do this, we will first understand the knowledge and techniques involved in creating an effective visualization, starting with data collection and ending with the image seen by the user. A visualization technique that best suits the data will be chosen and implemented. It will then be evaluated.
