Data Visualization is defined as the design, development, and application of computer-generated graphical representation of data[1]. Today, computers can be used to process and display large amounts of data in a way that is efficient, easily accessible, and understandable. How humans understand the world is grounded in perception and what can be seen. Visualization ranges from lines and points on a graph to the standardized symbols called emojis. Whether the underlying information encompasses strict quantitative data or an individual's wish to convey a certain emotion, data visualization is, on a basic level, a method of communicating[2].
Large industries and organizations value the tools used to represent data because they enable decision makers to comprehend information and form an opinion.
