Here is a compelling visualization that shows countries where Uber is currently offering jobs. No jobs in Antarctica, darn, guess I’ll have to use a regular cab to visit my penguin friends. You can check out more aspects of this visualization HERE.
The visualization was done with Silk. It’s a Big Data Lite tool that is very versatile. Silk streamlines and simplifies the visualization generation process and makes Big Data analysis DIY and easy. Silk renders each row in the data table as a data-first web page that automatically makes numbers chartable and automatically geocodes address information. Each page can also hold video, audio, live media embeds (like Twitter) and more. So the visualizations are just one aspect. Any CSV can be used to build a Silk (for the most part).
