Within the 2000s, should you needed to make interactive or animated visualization for the net, Flash was the primary possibility. When Flash misplaced assist and fell off the web, a strong decade of nice visualization not labored.

The New York Instances has resurrected their archives with a Flash emulator. So items that have been relegated to static thumbnail photographs are again. See the box office streamgraph that after upset many, the multi-line chart displaying jobless charges for folks such as you, and the interactive stacked area chart on how folks spend their day.

NYT is using the open supply Ruffle as their Flash emulator. I hope different information retailers comply with. It’s nice to see my favourite visualizations working once more. [via EagerEyes]
