This document discusses new trends in data analysis, visualization, and citizen science. It notes that data holds many stories that can be uncovered through analysis and engaging visualizations. Data visualization has become prominent with the rise of the internet and availability of large datasets. Citizen science is presented as an exciting new way to do research by harnessing human intelligence for tasks that are still difficult for computers through crowd-sourcing approaches. The overall message is that data visualization and citizen science can help extract meaningful insights from data and better communicate science.

New trends in data analysis and visualization on the web
- 1. New trends in data analysis and visualization on the web by Javier de la Torre, Sergio Alvarez (Vizzuality)
- 2. The world of information is changing
- 3. Before Data is power Now Meaning is power
- 4. We are all time generating new data Sometimes intentionally, sometimes not
- 5. Internet is full of data with a lot of stories to tell
- 6. So, the challenge is to squeeze those data, get the stories, and create a way to tell them
- 7. How we do that?
- 8. How to find the stories behind data? Analyzing and engaging* *We will get into that part later
- 9. And, how to tell them? Visually
- 10. So, What we have? Data visualization
- 12. SWINE FLU
- 13. 2K APOCALYPSE
- 15. But what’s the point of it? We live visually
- 16. Visual Thinking The practice of using pictures to solve problems, think through stories, and communicate clearly
- 17. Visual Thinking 80% of our brain is dedicated to visual processing
- 18. Visual Thinking Visual processing is part of our history
- 19. Visual Thinking Written language is originated from drawing and sketching
- 23. Maps as visualization. A new revolution
- 27. GIS arrives to Internet
- 30. A new field was born Neogeography
- 34. Visualization requires data capturing and data analysis
- 37. But... What about tasks where computers are not good?
- 41. So... What about using humans?
- 45. Science making use of Human Computation Citizen Science
- 49. Summarizing...
- 50. Science needs better communication. Visualization is a good way
- 51. Citizen science represents a new exciting way to do research
