Data Visualization Webinar Now Available

The data visualization webinar I recorded back in March is now available online at APRA's website. Check it out!

Here's the description:

Do your colleagues’ eyes glaze over when you present them with data? Your spreadsheet is impeccable, rich with information showing the highlights (and lowlights) of your fundraising efforts. But your right-brained colleagues can’t seem to put the picture together. These creative and holistic thinkers need more than columns of numbers to meaningfully interpret the data. And it's not just right-brainers who reap the benefits of data visualization. Learn how visualizing data can increase efficiency and effectiveness through innovative analysis.

Engage both halves of your audience’s brains through data visualization. In this presentation, you will learn creative methods and tools for presenting data so that it is easy to understand, including charts, cross-tabs, sparklines, and geographic and relationship mapping. We’ll look at examples of excellent data visualization, as well as pitfalls to avoid. You'll also get a whirlwind tour through the history of data visualization, from the earliest data maps of the 1600s up to today's cutting-edge interactive visualizations.

Dear Sir,

I have the pleasure to brief on our Data Visualization software
"Trend Compass".

TC is a new concept in viewing statistics and trends in an animated
way by displaying in one chart 5 axis (X, Y, Time, Bubble size &
Bubble color) instead of just the traditional X and Y axis. It could
be used in analysis, research, presentation etc. In the banking
sector, we have Deutsche Bank New York as our client.

I hope you could evaluate it and give me your comments. So many ideas
are there.

You can download a trial version. It has a feature to export
EXE,PPS,HTML and AVI files. The most impressive is the AVI since you
can record Audio/Video for the charts you create.

All the best.
