This is my group final project for CS171: Visualization at Harvard.
How can we visualize trends in US visas over the past decade in a way that is interactive and story-based?
You can explore the visualizations here.
Unfortunately, the project isn't available on mobile right now. Check back later or explore on your desktop!
This project was created in an intensive sprint over the course of 3 weeks in November 2018.
In the first week, we compiled a number of open datasets from US Citizenship and Immigration Services. We then explored the data in Tableau and sketched out storyboards to drive the design process.
In the final two weeks of the sprint we wireframed and built the website, including usability testing at the end.

We did not prioritize user testing throughout our design process. As a result, we went through too few iteration cycles with our final project and the interactions were not as intuitive as we hoped. Retrospectively, we might have focused on fewer but more rigorously tested visualizations.
