Oblikovanje vizualizacij za prikaz podatkov Narodne in univerzitetne knjižnica v Ljubljani

Blašković, Paola (avtor), Pušnik, Nace (mentor)

Magistrska naloga preučuje področje vizualizacije informacij in prikazuje njeno pomembnost v prikazu podatkov širši množici ljudi. Za namen naloge je bilo dogovorjeno sodelovanje z Narodno in univerzitetno knjižnico v Ljubljani (NUK). NUK letno pridobi veliko količino statističnih podatkov, ki se shranjujejo v preglednice in uporabljajo kot osnova za izdelavo letnih poročil. Magistrsko delo te statistične podatke prikazuje v grafični obliki, v infografikah, ki so kot take zanimive in razumljive širši množici ljudi ter se lahko uporabljajo razstavljene v prostorih knjižnice. V teoretičnem delu smo definirali oblikovanje informacij, opisali njegovo zgodovino, predstavili njegovo pomembnost v vsakdanjem življenju, prikazali različne elemente, ki se pojavijo v samem procesu oblikovanja. Prikazali smo načine zaznavanja informacij in kako jih uporabljamo pri oblikovanju informacij za uporabnika. Predstavili smo namene vizualizacije podatkov, različne vrste vizualizacij ter definirali in razjasnili pojem infografika. V eksperimentalnem delu smo analizirali in vizualizirali ter prikazali podatke, pridobljene s strani NUK-a. Iz teh vizualizacij smo nato oblikovali infografike. Oblikovali smo tri infografike, ena prikazuje 200-letno zgodovino NUK-a, druga, zbirko gradiva NUK-a, in tretja zgodovinska dogajanja okoli gradnje NUK2. Cilj magistrskega dela je serija plakatov, na katerih so prikazane infografike. Le-te na zanimiv in uporaben način prikazujejo podatke NUK-a in so zaradi tega privlačne za branje in proučevanje. Namen tega je pokazati, kako lahko grafični prikaz podatkov pripomore k razumevanju in približanju podatkov občinstvu.

Izvleček

The master's thesis examines the field of information visualization and shows its importance in presenting data to a wider audience. For the purpose of the task, cooperation was agreed with the National and University Library in Ljubljana (NUK). NUK annually obtains a large amount of statistical data, which are stored in spreadsheets and used as a basis for the annual reports. The master's thesis presents these statistical data in graphic forms, in infographics, which as such are interesting and understandable to a wider audience and can be exhibited in the library. In the theoretical part, we defined the design of information, described its history, presented its importance in everyday life, showed all the different elements that appear in the design process. We have shown the ways of perceiving information and how we use it in designing information for the user. We presented the purpose of data visualization, different types of visualizations, defined and clarified the concept of infographics. In the experimental part, we analyzed and visualized and presented the data obtained by NUK. We then designed infographics from these visualizations. We created three infographics, one showing the 200-year history of NUK, second one is a collection of NUK library material, and the third showing historical events around the construction of NUK2. The aim of the master's thesis is a series of posters showing infographics. These present NUK data in an interesting and useful way and are therefore attractive for reading and studying. The purpose of this is to show how graphical representation of data helps in understanding and bringing data closer to the audience.
