Author: Ændrew H. Rininsland, Michael Heydt, Pablo Navarro Castillo Full Title: D3.js: Cutting-edge Data Visualization Publisher: Packt Publishing; 1 edition (March 31, 2017) Year: 2016 ISBN-13: 9781787281776 (978-1-78728-177-6) ISBN-10: 1787281779 Pages: 868 Language: English Genre: Web Development File type: AZW3 Quality: 7/10 Price: $87.11 Turn your raw data into real knowledge by creating and deploying complex data visualizations with D3.js. D3 has emerged as one of the leading platforms to develop beautiful, interactive visualizations over the web. We begin the course by setting up a strong foundation, then build on this foundation as we take you through the entire world of reimagining data using interactive, animated visualizations created in D3.js. In the first module, we cover the various features of D3.js to build a wide range of visualizations. We also focus on the entire process of representing data through visualizations. By the end of this module, you will be ready to use D3 to transform any data into a more engaging and sophisticated visualization. In the next module, you will learn to master the creation of graphical elements from data. Using practical examples provided, you will quickly get to grips with the features of D3.js and use this learning to create your own spectacular data visualizations with D3.js. Over the last leg of this course, you will get acquainted with how to integrate D3 with mapping libraries to provide reverse geocoding and interactive maps among many other advanced features of D3. This module culminates by showing you how to create enterprise-level dashboards to display real-time data.
