I’m about to start the third visualisation for my One Week of The Guardian series, and I’ve been looking through my research on static visualisations and infographics research. Some of these visuals are really very beautiful, so I’m about to share. Enjoy.
The NYTimes has a nice clean infographic on what the presidential candidates have raised and spent.
Another one from the NYTimes, this one shows the fatalities of a year in Iraq. The NYTimes has alot of really nice infographics. Alot.
The black holes of the internet. Very nice.
The Economist has an infographic about how the world consumes petrol per day.
A series of infographics created by Clarence Larkin using biblical data to explain various religious concepts.

I love these static relationship visualisations by Mark Lombardi.

Another visualisation from the NYTimes, this one shows the profitability of movies at the box office.

Problem with the internet map one, which I saw a while back, is that it doesn’t properly map the oceans. In reality there are just a few pipes across the various oceans (making them de facto black holes, there being only water there).
I suppose it wouldn’t make their point as well, but it really gives people a false idea of what the actual world of internet connections looks like.
I have just become interested in infographics, in the past I did mainly charts and from time to time simply maps.
