Data is often considered one of the most valuable commodities in our modern society, especially with the current rise of digital technology. However, having access to data does not guarantee its effective utilization. As a designer, the primary challenge of my contribution lies in determining the stories that are told and the emphasis placed on conveyed points. In this project, my aim is to investigate the relationships in data and explore approaches to communicate them.

I opted for transportation as the central theme for my data visualization work over the next few weeks. I’m particularly drawn to transportation due to the substantial opportunity it offers for integrating spatial analysis into the process. Additionally, I’m intrigued by the potential insights into urban transportation, which could significantly impact people’s living conditions.
