Ask HN: State of the art in dashboards
Look and feel seems much less important than the ability to deliver information and help users to understand complex data; what's the state of the art and where can I find it?
- user5994461 10y agoWhat are you talking about? Monitoring? Analytics? Big Data Visualization? Other? What do you want to see?
- sgt101 10y agoI want to find research that tells me how a dashboard should work in order to deliver insight to a user. Dashboards are important artefacts for business users, but their design seems to be about aethestics rather than function; and whereas individual visualisations are researched to understand how they deliver information (for example the uselessness of pi-charts) the overall design of dashboards doesn't seem to have any understood structure or known methods of adding value.
