Details

This guide has been written by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) for people who need to understand and produce visualisations of data.

By itself data is pretty boring and can be difficult to interpret quickly. Telling stories or having conversations about the data can help, but adding images or visualisations is even better.

Data is critical to Dstl: how we collect, manage, use and hold data are areas where we continually strive to improve. Data is also critical to the nation as a whole, and Dstl is helping raise awareness of its importance and the need to treat it as a national asset. Find out more about Dstls work.

A Bite-Sized Guide to Visualising Data is just one of a series of biscuit books, designed to be dipped into and easily digested - just like a biscuit with tea.
