Assignment 3

The goal is to implement a basic visual representation for a tool that helps to address the research question you have chosen.

What do do

For this assignment we want to you implement a basic layout - this can follow the tool you have proposed on your last sketch or, if you have gotten new inspiration, you can also choose another representation. Lay down the marks you want to use to represent data items or their relationships. Do not yet visualize additional metadata.

In contrast to the examples above, however, your sketch should be based on the dataset provided and/or a chosen reasonable subset of the data.

Submitting the Assignment


WHAT - Create a folder called "YOUR_LASTNAME-Assignment3" and put all your files in it. Make a single ZIP file called "YOUR_LASTNAME-Assignment3.zip" and submit it via email. It should contain:

  1. Your sketch and the website as for assignment 1. Make sure that your code runs. We will be using Firefox to look at the visual result of your exercise.
  2. Make sure the data file is submitted in the data folder as explained in the first tutorial
  3. Also submit a 300x300px thumbnail screenshot of your solution. The thumbnail will be used on a website where all solutions of all students will be collected and made available. Do not put any identifying information on your html page if you do not want to be identified.
