Poor Graphic

State of the Planet - Bigger, Faster, Stronger, More

Arguments why it is a poor graphic

  • Principles of Graphical Integrity
  • lie factor:the right graphic seems do be much larger then the left. it should be only 1,5 times larger then the other one based on the data.
  • the numbers are not readable and the lines between the numbers are not needed and very irritating.
  • a pseudo 3-dimensional graphic is used to show 1-dimensional data
  • data-ink ratio:very poor data-ink ratio.
  • visual clutter:
  • Data Density:
  • Chartjunk:
  • in the text a reason for increased hurricans is mentioned, but in the shown data is no evidence for that, because there is no reason related data.
