As media today is shifting to web-based and digital-first, there is huge potential for higher dimensional data visualization to play its role in innovative storytelling. In this session, we’ll discuss advantages of 3D visualizations and learn from real-world use cases, including a 3D map of Scaffolding in NYC. We’ll also gain hands-on experience by walking through the procedure to create a 3D geospatial data visualization with PyDeck, a layer-structured python library. Learn to quickly develop and prototype exploratory visualizations and see your data from new perspectives. This session is moderated by Yanan Sun, Local News Researcher at UNC-Chapel Hill, and co-hosted by Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia Journalism School.
