InfoViz Geek

Made By Information Visualization Geeks Bitdeli Badge ###Introduction InfoVizGeek is a project which talks about the different tools and technologies which would enable an individual to create data visualizations. This repo has a vast list of tools along with their licensing available. This is an exhaustive list and I would be glad to accept additional tools which you guys out there in community use.

###Visualization Classification According to my research and understanding till now, I would go ahead and set up a classification of all the visualizations. The visualizations can be broadly classified as follows:-

  1. Charts
  2. Maps
  3. Time Series
  4. Flow
  5. Matrix
  6. Network
  7. Hierarchy
  8. Infographics
  9. Multiple
  10. Physical

###Tools & Frameworks We can broadly divide this entire thing into two parts.

  1. Talking about Tools that facilitate Visualizations
  2. Frameworks that enable an Individual with the language he/she is comfortable in.

###Tools

  1. TileMill
  2. Spss
  3. Matlab
  4. Tableau
  5. AdobeCS
  6. Mathematica
  7. Qlik Sense
  8. NodeBox
  9. Watson-Analytics
  10. Instant Atlas
  11. Weka
  12. yWorks
  13. SAS Visual Analytics
  14. Visua.ly
  15. CartoDB
  16. iCharts - Cloud Based Solution
  17. iCharts.net - Collaborative visual intelligence
  18. Tributary
  19. DASHKU
  20. Gephi - Open Source Viz Platform
  21. Orange
  22. Lightning - Open Source Data Visualization Server

###Frameworks based on Programming Languages

  1. C
  2. IOS
  3. JavaScript
  4. Java
  5. Flash
  6. Processing
  7. Python
  8. Ruby
  9. R
