Data visualization is a method of graphically rendering data. Graphs and charts are very good examples of this. Representing the information this way allows us to get a visual perspective of how data relate to each other and helps us better understand the situation presented. It is an engaging way to communicate information.
For example, knowing that your company’s market share is a measly 10% might make you anxious. But a pie chart showing that there are hundreds of competitors might help you appreciate that you have the largest share of the market and that your company is in a highly competitive industry.
