Important

Length 5-10 minutes
Includes audio, that makes movie self-explanatory
Multiple submissions allowed, total of 30 mins submitted by any group/person
Review criteria: overall aesthetics, creativity, motivation, interesting findings, data complexity, size of data, good graphics practices, reproducibility, understandable by a scientific audience, eg college level education

We will use this issue to brainstorm on potential ideas. Some aspects to think about are

What dataset to explore?
What JS charting libraries to use?

@timelyportfolio, @reinholdsson feel free to add to this discussion. I am thinking a nice reproducible Shiny controlled interactive visualization with a Slidify created UI!

ramnathv commented 11 years ago

Hospital Price Data

This is a wonderful dataset that allows exploration on multiple dimensions. We can use Leaflet along with one of the regular charting libraries to create a nice interactive visualization.

Medicare Provider Charge Data: Inpatient Medicare Provider Charge Data: Outpatient

Cool! I will look more into it.

ramnathv commented 11 years ago

Thanks. Let us add more datasets to this. Let me check if @pssguy will also be interested in working with us on this, given his rich experience in creating interactive visualizations.

Ggobi allows to draw interactive graphics based on different datasets (with a common identifiant). Recently I used this functionnality, and this is not possible to do with the iplots package for example (or the JMP software). Is there a Javascript library allowing that ?

ramnathv commented 11 years ago

There is dc.js which allows multiple plots to be connected and explored together. I am in the process of integrating it with rCharts, and it should soon be available on github.

That is going to be amazing!!!

Hi Ramnathv,

First of all, thanks for the amazing rCharts package. I can't tell you enough how it helped me create beautiful charts everyday.

I saw that you were in the process of intergrating dc.js with rCharts. Is it available now? How do I get it? Do you have a working example on how to use it? I'm trying to create multiple drilled-down connected charts and saw this thread. I'd love to try it out on a Shiny app. Please let me know

Thanks, Huan

Thanks for the kind words. The dc.js implementation is still very raw and it is going to take a few iterations before I have a version I can push to github. I will update this thread when I have some preliminary support implemented.

Hello Ramnath, I have enjoyed using rCharts for some time now and love the idea of native cross-filtering. Do you have any updates on the dc.js implementation? Thanks!

ramnathv commented 9 years ago

The dc.js implementation ran into some unexpected troubles. I hope to pick up the threads in 2015.
