Chapter 8 Introduction to Data Visualizations

In the following chapters of the “Data Visualizations” section, visualizations are presented that are either already frequently used in the field of building monitoring, are difficult to create or seem to be recommendable.

Sometimes not the final creation of the lines is challenging, but the preceding data preparation of the raw data. Therefore all parts of the data preparation from the raw-files up to the final visualization are shown as recipes.

The focus is on visualizations for reports in print quality. However, since some functions are implemented in the redutils package and are thus easy to call up, they are therefore also suitable for the fast visualization of data in the field of explorative data analysis.
