Data visualization as a profession has been growing rapidly in recent years. Although some initiatives are in place to increase engagement between the academic and practitioner communities, we currently do not have a good understanding of how practitioners do their design work, including what methods, approaches, and principles they know and use in their everyday practice. We present a subset of results of a survey in which 87 DataVis practitioners identified their familiarity with popular design methods and the frequency with which they use them in their own work. We also discuss follow-up work to develop a deeper understanding of practitioners' perspectives on design methods. |
