Principles of datagraphic design 1. All data represent one of 3 dimensions: WHAT | WHEN | WHERE? 2. Every datagraphic visualizes a relationship among the dimensions. 3. There is an appropriate visualizationfor every relationship. 4. The visualization should be efficiently designed. 5. The design should reveal the insight.
