Nowadays, we deeply drowned in data of diverse kinds due to the increased computational power and accessibility. Specifically, in addition to public data available on the Internet (e.g., census, demographics, environmental data), data pertaining personal daily activities are now more easily collected. For example, through mobile devices that can log people's running distances and time or their manual record of nutrition consumption. Due to such expanded sources of data, there appear new applications that involve data collection, visualization, exploration, and distribution in daily contexts. These applications do, not only display static information but also let users navigate the data in forms of interactive visualizations. 5 Emerging Trends in Data Visualization. #1: This emerging trend has brought both opportunities and challenges to interaction designers to develop new approaches to designing data-based applications. #2: Conveying information has been one of main functio...
