Data Visualization Portfolio
Data Portfolio Instructions:
A data portfolio is typically a collection of your best data projects
that you include with an employment application to show a potential employer your skill as a
data analyst. For your final project you will create your own data portfolio by designing and
visualizing your own data project.
This project should be a culmination of all the things you have learned in this class both from the
text and from the in-class activities.
Define the issues you plan to illustrate using your selected data set. Your issues should include a geographical location.
Provide a summary of your data set to show your knowledge of the data you are using, as well as summarize your normalization of the data.
Create your visualizations to illustrate your answers as well as write a summary of your findings to further explain your visualization.

1. Cover page
