Abstract

Minard's figurative map is an infographic on Napoleon's Russian Campaign of 1812. Tufte (The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, Graphics Press, 1983) declared that Napoleon's March "may well be the best statistical graphic ever produced." We can use this data map as storytelling material for data visualization education. In this paper, with Minard's figurative map, we study four themes (infographics, information design, Minard, and the Russian Campaign) in data visualization education.

Minard의 정보맵은 1812년 나폴레옹의 러시아침공을 묘사한 정보그래픽스로서 Tufte (1983)가 극찬하였던 그림이다. 이 정보그래픽스를 데이터시각화교육에서 스토리텔링 소재로서 활용할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 Minard의 정보맵을 시작점으로 하여 스토리텔링을 이용한 데이터시각화 교육에 대하여 4개의 주제(정보그래픽스, 정보디자인, Minard, 나폴레옹의 러시아침공)별로 언급하였다.
