Data presentation and visualisation

Table of Contents

 

Visualisation of IA (interim) results, for instance in analyses or consultation papers, facilitates communication with external persons in the IA process. Presentation of data and information may support coordination with other ministries involved, participation and consultation of stakeholders, communication with decision-makers or the general public. In principle, visualising information has three main advantages; it helps to

  • improve interaction between those who provide and those who receive the information as well as among receptors of information;
  • represent complex issues by showing
    • Relations between issues (e.g. cause and effect)
    • Relevance of an issue for stakeholders or target groups
    • Developments over time or
    • The distribution of effects (over time, space, or between target groups).
  • summarize and highlight the oftentimes comprehensive and technical information that is processed and generated in the course of an assessment process.

Despite its advantages, there has been minor use of visualisation approaches in IA (reports) so far.
