climateadaptation: Really cool visualization tool of global development by individual country. I played around and compared Kenya, Congo, and Uganda to Greece and Germany. Education attainment and co2 emissions are, as expected, really low in Africa, but really high in Germany and medium for Greece. Don’t forget the use the scroll bar at the bottom to compare growth over time. Comparing Human Development of Countries through Star Plot Shapes Worldshapin lets users study the interdependence of various factors such as health, carbon footprint, workplace equality, living standard, population and education across the world. Therefore, the project visualizes data taken from the Human Development Report 2011, and plots it on a stylized smoothed star plot. In effect, the world, continents and countries are represented as unique shapes based on how low or high they fare on 6 indicators.
