Stamen Design

Join Stamen's data visualization experts to discuss the art and science of communicating about climate change through data visualization, as part of California Governor Jerry Brown’s Global Climate Action Summit.
In this workshop we will discuss:
What is data visualization, and how to do it well? What are the specific challenges in using dataviz to communicate about climate change? How do we communicate uncertainty? How do we make the massive scale of climate change comprehensible at human scales?
In particular we'll discuss visualizations across the following three themes:
<UL>
<LI>Sea level rise maps: “What gets flooded, who gets flooded?”</LI>
<LI>Temperature change and time series visualizations: “Beyond the hockey stick charts”</LI>
<LI>Sustainability and adaptation (sensors and data feeds): “What can we actually do? Are we on track? How do we measure it?”</LI>
</UL>
This workshop does not require any previous experience with computer programming or design.
