Lessons learned
  • When looking at data alone without visualising it, we may miss seeing important structure.
  • Avoid tools that cannot be automated/scripted.
  • Optimise for comprehension and accessibility.


Food for thought

  • Can you explain why the generation of figures as part of a data analysis pipeline needs to be automated?
  • What problems can you anticipate for a data visualisation workflow which is not automated?
  • Can you describe examples where statistical values alone, without an accompanying figure may not be enough?
