Data science is a multi faceted discipline. If you were to boil it down, there are three skill sets involved in a succesful data science project

• Domain Knowledge
• Mathematical model building and testing
• Communicating the results to the stake holders

The third of these has spawned the need for a better way to present the data. We have come a long way from the excel type row/column reports. An entire new expertise has come out of this… visualization.

Some will say that this is the most important of all the steps. The ability to explain and display data in an intotive way, is what this topic is about.

We will review various software tools and discuss concepts that are critical to achieving these goals
