Data Visualization in R: Understanding ggplot2
This course was originally developed for Sandia National Labs as they were converting their production visualizations from Tableau to R for greater customizability.
It covers the following topics:
- understanding the grammar of graphics that ggplot2 implements
- mapping data to a visualization
- implementing different visual representations (e.g., bar chart, line plot, etc.)
- customizing labels and appearance of visualizations
- an example gallery demonstrating the abilities of ggplot2
- hands-on practice creating visualizations to answer specific questions
