Tools for Data Visualization

Datawrapper & Plotly are fine tools offering rich capabilities to enable a deeper understanding of data.

The top image is a 2D contour plot created in Plotly from a scatter plot showing 48 hours of interior RH vs. exterior Temp data, shown in the middle plot. The raw data shown at the bottom in a simple Excel graph.

The 2D contour map is a remarkable transformation of information presented in the scatter plot. Density is not readily visually apparent in the scatter plot, while the contour plot shows the gradient and concentration approaching 29% RH and 38 degrees.
