Projects for visualization using openspendingjs #110

Open pwalsh opened 11 years ago

pwalsh commented 11 years ago

Open Spending has a suite of javascript visualization tools:

https://github.com/openspending/openspendingjs

There is easily a dedicated project to use one or many of such tools and visualize Open Muni Budgets data through them. The results of such project(s) can be displayed in the gallery, or, if applicable, integrated more fully into the Open Muni Budgets web app.

Funny you mention it...

I was just going to ask you to consider using OpenSpending tools for vizualizations. Can we talk about this tomorrow?

We can't use them directly in our project, I added it as a satellite project.

idoivri commented 11 years ago

Sure, that's fine. I just wanted to say that this came up, and it's an interesting direction.

Remember that the main problem with the OS tools is that they don't support comparison.

idoivri commented 11 years ago

Yes... I know...

Still - I want to raise this (well, not exactly this) as an item for discussion tomorrow.
