It was pleasure to share our work at IEEE VIS about rainbow, thank you for all comments and questions. Arzu Çöltekin is fully right: also about the consequences of using 🌈for ordering tasks 😉 More on ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/92490…

This week's Women's Day hashtag was "break the bias", so here is a talk I gave linking visual illusions from our work and cognitive bias in social contexts youtube.com/watch?v=ZGvDgh… Unconscious bias is an interesting phenomenon! 🌍 GEODES 🇨🇭 #breakthebias #breakthebias2022

If you make plots, someone told you not to use rainbow colors. You probably asked "what's wrong with the rainbow"? Here is the answer: We reviewed evidence for and against the rainbow colors, and prevalence across disciplines over time: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… (open access).

So happy to see published results of our study on legend designs for geodashboards. It was again a great pleasure to collaborate with Arzu Arzu Çöltekin and other excellent colleagues: Tomek Opach, Jola Jolanta Korycka-Skorupa and Jan Ketil Rød. Below Arzu Çöltekin shares link and main results:

Now Iza (Iza Golebiowska) presents a review on rainbows ... why they don't work, how common are they, who studied them, and what they found. It's been a popular topic to study and discuss, but also persistently used still outside vis domains. Papers linked below :) #icc2023

Iza (Iza Golebiowska) is back on stage today, presenting another project on which we collaborated -- does splitting the legend also splits attention in visual analytics dashboards? #icc2023 Abstract ica-abs.copernicus.org/articles/6/73/… Paper (open access) tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Tomorrow (15Nov, Wed), I will be happy to give a talk on color in cartography and (un)successful color choices during online lectures organised by International Society for Digital Earth and ISPRS WG IV/5 Extended Reality & Visual Analytics. The lectures will also cover exciting topics of XR in various contexts. Zoom link below👇

During the next #WarSHum seminar at Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences I am happy to talk about map users' perspective. Great to see historians are interested not only in (not only old) maps, but also how people read them. If you want to join the online meeting, please register 👇

Amy Griffin (RMIT University), Arzu Çöltekin Arzu Çöltekin (Institute of Interactive Technologies FHNW) and Robert E. Roth (UW-Madison Geography UW Cart Lab) at the Uniwersytet Warszawski talk on usability i #cartography and multiple aspects of #map #design Maps are created for humans - a given yet always inspiring #DataViz #CartoViz ICA

Day 2 of pre- #eurocarto activities is in full swing, hosted by Iza Golebiowska and co. at the University of Warsaw. See the program here: carto-vis-workshop.uw.edu.pl (abstracts will follow). Interesting talks and great energy! cc ICA ICA Commission on Visual Analytics #cartography #datavis

Yesterday, we had a wonderful pre-#EuroCarto workshop CartoVis24 at @uniwarszawski Joint effort of ICA Commissions: CogVis, Geovisualization ICA Commission on Visual Analytics , User Experience (UX) and ICA Next Generation Cartographers Amazing talks & amazing people 👏🗺️
