THE DATA VISUALIZATION SKETCHBOOK
Stephanie D. H. Evergreen, Evergreen Data & Evaluation, LLC
Data visualization experts have been recommending sketching as a path to step away from the intensity of the digital
environment. Sketching is seen as a method by which to quickly iterate through several possible visualizations, allowing
for fast failure and revision, which would take hours on a computer. Sketching helps people realize mistakes and
fi nd solutions quickly. The Data Visualization Sketchbook includes template pages, where Evergreen structures the
skeleton of an infographic or dashboard, and users can fi ll in the spaces with their content. Other pages are graph-
lined so people can sketch out graphs to scale and some are completely blank for free sketching. The Sketchbook is a
great place to make mockups of visuals before refi ning them digitally and is a must-have accompaniment to Effective
Data Visualization and Presenting Data Effectively
