19.08.2015 by roberts

There are a bunch of users out there using Infogram to make their charts and data visualizations. Some of them stand out from the rest. We are going to share with you five bar charts that we think are successful and tell you why. (No specific order)

1.   Wii U Sales Since Launch via The Verge

This bar chart‘s simple color scheme coincides with the colors of the Nintendo Wii U, with the grey and light blue. Another great aspect is The Verge logo on the bottom right. With the Business account, you are able to remove the Infogram logo and replace it with your own to give it your own flavor. Simplicity comes through with this chart.

2.   Florida Endures a Soggy September via AccuWeather

There is two types of elements within the same data visualization. The bar chart is comparing actual rain fall and normal rain fall in Florida. The colors are bright and engage the reader. The facts and figures below the chart complement the entire visualization, especially with the rain drops icon. It gives the reader extra information that can not be found in the chart.

3.   Monthly Air Traffic Movements and Delays via NATS

There is essentially two charts within one, which makes this stand out from the rest. NATS is comparing two different topics, one with a chart and the other with a line graph. Simpler is always better, but with this chart, more happens to work. It is clear, there is no clutter and the colors work great together.

4.   2014-2015 MVP Stats via Bleacher Report

In the world of sports, data is everywhere. Especially in basketball, comparing stats and different players. This bar chart did just that. The story was about how close the race was for the MVP title and you can see that in the chart. With the different tabs, you can see who is doing better in a certain category. Another element that made this chart successful was the colors assigned to each player; they match the color of the teams they play for.

5.   Internet Advertising in Europe via Politico

The article has multiple charts, but this one stood out. Aesthetically, the bar chart looks clean and bright. The red, yellow and blue colors help this chart jump off the page. The comparison is clear and concise.
