[PQ REDS Series] Visualizing Data in Python
Event Information
About this Event
Understand and communicate the story living in your data with graphical representations that summarize large amounts of information to quickly highlight relationships, patterns, trends, and outliers. In this session, we’ll discuss:
- Types of charts and when to use each
- Charting with Matplotlib and Seaborn (including advanced features such as multiple plots on the same chart, outputting to pdf, and more)
- Parallels between Tableau, Qlikview, PowerBI and Python capabilities
- Other packages (Altair, ggplot, Plotly, D3.js)
Participants can expect to walk away with a working understanding of data visualization concepts (i.e. when, where, how to use), the tools available for your needs, and the technical capability to create compelling visualizations in Python.
While examples are drawn heavily from real estate, these methods are highly adaptable across industries.
