DVG – Data Visualization Group

Data Visualization Group (i.e., DVG) is a place for students, faculty, and staff who are interested in sharing topics, theories, methods, and techniques related to data visualization. Data visualization is a graphical representation of data. Done well, visual elements such as charts, graphs, and maps are just a few data visualization tools that can provide viewers an accessible way of understanding the represented information. In a world increasingly governed by Big Data, data visualization can assist decision-makers in their analyses.
In this working group, members are encouraged to discuss and share theories, methods, and projects that include but are not limited to data preprocessing, data explanation, data exploration, theories of data visualization, real-world examples, and ongoing work. We will explore the fundamentals of data visualization including design principles, best practices, dashboards, visualization tools, ethics, and more.
This is a new working group, and topics will be based on participation and interest. Virtual meetings are free, open to all GC Community members of all skill levels, disciplines, and backgrounds.

GCDI Mapping Workshop – 3D spatial visualization using rayshader package in R

  • Hi, everyone.

    Coming here to announce our first workshop of the semester.

    3D Models of Canyons, Lakes  and Rivers!

    Join us Friday, February 3rd, 5.00 – 6.30pm, as we dive into an exciting RStudio workshop using the Rayshader package!

    Tyler Morgan Wall’s Rayshader & Rayrender packages for R allow you to create 3D models of both statistical information or raster images of maps.

    Join Sam & Rilquer as we run through a tutorial for making 3d models and images of remarkable natural landscapes.

    Hybrid event: in-person room 7414 or on Zoom
