Data visualization gives us a clear idea of what the information means by giving it visual context through maps or graphs. This makes the data more natural for the human mind to comprehend and therefore makes it easier to identify trends, patterns, and outliers within large data sets. It is not important only to the discipline of Information Technology and Computer Science but it is also useful to each industry.

Any company should know about the progress trend in the past 5 to 10 years to represent their company’s growth. To represent it simply, graphs should be used. Thus, data visualization is showing the statistics in the simplest way possible (i.e. Graphs). As we are exposed to 5 times more information than in 1986, our brain has to process faster. The visuals are processed 60,000 times faster than text by our brains. Also, visual data is read 30 times more than plain text.
