The human brain processes visual information more readily than raw numbers. That makes data visualization a particularly effective way to uncover insights. DataViz Weekly presents some of the best recent examples we have come across:
Public lands for sale in the United States — The Wilderness Society
Future flight turbulence under warming — The Washington Post
U.S. federal finances — Reuters
Winners of the Information is Beautiful Awards — Data Visualization Society
Qlik Connect 2025 is now in the books, and it was everything we hoped for — and more.

The buzz was real — just take a look below, then read on for a recap of our time at Qlik Connect:
Here we are with a new selection of great examples showing the power of data visualization in action, whether for exploring or explaining. See which projects made it to this edition of DataViz Weekly:
