From 1862, this was a comparative chart that provides you with the best of what was known for the major rivers and mountains of the world.
Great visualization let's you wander and discover, this does the job well

4/5 As an extreme example, you can plot the analemmas for noon and see that it's below the horizon for part of the year in the arctics: this is when those latitudes are in the long polar night! (the crazy looping around latitude = 0 is just from a singularity due to the spherical-to-rect projection)

5/5 Focusing back on a single lat/long, here we simulate the analemma across the day in DC (here, in 30 minute increments) to see how the shape changes position across the sky/year. Basically, visualizing a 2D projected slice of 4D time/space: that's a fun #dataviz!

New server, new #introduction:

👋 Hi! I'm Eric! I'm a scientific programmer & educator who writes mostly rstats code. I currently work part time at #UniversityOfArizona where I help researchers by making R packages, #Shiny apps, automated data workflows, and training them on #ReproducibleResearch practices. I also mentor data scientists for @Posit Academy. I am #OpenToWork as a contractor if any of those skills sound useful to you.

My background is in plant chemical ecology and population ecology and for my PhD I studied #tea and did field work in China. I love tea (although I've been drinking coffee more and more lately) and practice #GongFuCha when I can. I love #foraging and tasting new things.

I currently live in #Tucson but the #BayArea will always be my home.

🎥 Le webinaire sur la datavisualisation, organisé par le GTSO #Données de Couperin, est désormais disponible en replay !

📅 Tenu le 17 décembre 2024, ce webinaire explore l’art de transformer des données complexes en récits visuels clairs, fonctionnels et esthétiques. Mais attention : une belle image ne suffit pas, elle doit aussi rendre les informations compréhensibles et pertinentes.

Ce webinaire propose :
✨ Des concepts et outils issus de différents univers disciplinaires.
✨ Des exemples concrets de projets et solutions pratiques.
✨ Une réflexion sur la place de l’image comme vecteur d’information.

👩‍🏫 Intervenants :
Jean-Daniel Fekete (Inria Paris-Saclay)
Étienne Côme (Université Gustave Eiffel)
