Static, dynamic and interactive data visualisation and infographics. How to transform data into information using graphics and digital means

Data visualisation, whether static, dynamic or interactive, plays an essential role in turning raw data into information that people can understand and use. Static graphics, such as charts and infographics, provide clear and concise representations that work well in print or fixed digital formats. Dynamic visualisations add movement or real-time updates, helping reveal patterns, trends and changes that might otherwise remain hidden. Interactive visualisations go further by allowing users to explore data for themselves, adjust variables and uncover relationships that matter to their own questions. Together, these approaches show how graphical and digital techniques can make complex datasets accessible, meaningful and relevant across academic, professional and public settings.
