Global Warming Alongside A Flourish


One of my favorite mapped information visualizations of the final few years is The Guardian's In Flight – Interactive Map, an amazing presentation exploring the history of commercial air travel. The interactive even features an animated map visualizing 24 hours of bird flights to a greater extent than or less the basis as well as a narrated documentary looking at the nascency of commercial flights, the evolution of international air go as well as a expect at the potential futurity for the industry.

The In Flight map was developed for The Guardian past times Kiln, a information visualization compnany based inwards London. Kiln has straight off released a platform which anyone tin plough over notice purpose to say their ain stories alongside data. Flourish is a JavaScript library which developers tin plough over notice purpose to practise visualization templates that non-coders tin plough over notice as well as thus purpose to easily edit as well as set out data-driven as well as interactive content. Using Flourish it is possible to practise your ain interactive mapped visualizations.

Kiln has used Flourish to practise their ain mapped information visualization of twenty years of global warming. The Climate Weather Map uses 500 ane 1000 m weather condition records to present the highest as well as lowest temperatures to a greater extent than or less the basis over the final twenty years. The map includes a timeline which animates through the twenty years of records, adding the tape highest as well as lowest temperatures to the map past times the engagement that they were recorded.

The story-telling chemical part of the visualization is managed past times forwards as well as backward buttons. These buttons are used to zoom the map to specific locations on specific dates, when a province or continent experienced extreme weather. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 brief explanation for each of these examples of extreme weather condition is provided inwards a higher house the map.

The Climate Weather Map is a prissy demo map of what tin plough over notice endure made alongside Kiln's Flourish library. You tin plough over notice thought to a greater extent than examples of information visualizations created alongside Flourish on the Flourish Examples page.
