Hallo an die Expert:innen zu #DataVis #DataViz #MapChallenge #30DaysMapChallenge & Co.

Wäre Lobbyismus, Einfluss von BigTech und so weiter nicht auch mal ein Thema für Euch?

Wir freuen uns über weitere Themen-Felder und Sektoren, die visualisiert werden. (Bitte pingt uns an, wir helfen mit dem Verbreiten Eurer Visualisierungen). 🙂

Lasst Euch inspirieren von @digitalrechte und der #LobbyLandkarte zu #NetzPolitik 👇🏼

Many hours of fiddling mean that I can parse the XML into something which I can munge in R and make relatively pretty plots with ggplot.
There is no way I am going to try mixing R into any back end of any device, but I've managed to make something which can read the open data, so I could notionally do it again.

One dataset, two ways of looking at it. At Visualising Climate 2026, we will explore how design choices like these change what people see & understand about our climate. Join us to experiment and co-create better ways of seeing climate data. 🗓 4–6 November 2026📍 Bologna, Italy More info ⬇️

This data story by #Tagesspiegel just won a European Digital Publishing Award in data journalism:

In 2024, @lehmann and I co-taught Mapping Cities – Making Cities to students of #InterfaceDesign and #UrbanFutures and one team asked: is access to a pool a matter of privilege? This question sparked an in-depth investigation that led to a surprising finding…

Wo Berlins private Pools stehen – und was das über die Stadt verrät

Berlin wird heißer – und Abkühlung zum Luxus. Mithilfe von KI haben wir erstmals Privat-Pools in der Hauptstadt gezählt. Das Muster ist eindeutig – und überraschend: von Platz, Wasser und neuer Ungleichheit.

Most recent #CDC dataset, updated Friday, shows two Stratus XFG variants, XFG.1.1 and newcomer XFG.23.1.3 / RV, gaining ground against their dynastic cousins.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family also gained share, even as the XFY recombinant was overshadowed by its fellow PQ variants.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

Raj's dashboard, updated near two weeks ago, showed Stratus-Eleventy XFG.1.1, alone, at a quarter share, for the last half of the most recent reporting period, while Cicada #BA32 grandkid RE.2 made a significant appearance in GISAID data (despite Cicada not yet showing up in CDC estimates.)

That said, said GISAID data was dominated by paltry submissions from New York (171), Minnesota (85), Maryland (84), Nebraska (53), and Arizona (17).
