Take a seat as user experience leaders from Google, the Data Visualisation Society, and Imply discuss the impact of real-time data on data visualization and UI design. Each panelist had distinct takes on whether real-time data should be universal in analytics UIs, weighing the value of real-time insights against potential information overload and increased costs. The panel wrapped up with predictions for the future, including more dynamic, Google Maps-style data visualizations and efforts to help users interpret complex data better.
Panelists:
– Elijah Meeks, Principal Engineer, Confluent (also: Director of Publications, Data Visualization Society)
– Sireesha Pulipati, Analytics Engineer, Attain (ex:Google)
– Vadim Ogievetsky, Co-Founder & Chief Experience Officer, Imply
