Beyond the Static 2D Plot - Spatial Data Storytelling in 4D

Kęstutis Gadeikis

2D static plots are great, but they are static. Data isn't - it changes. So we turn a plot into an animation. But we don't live in planes - we live in space. And we want to send a message, not just show an animation. This leads us to the 3D animated story! In this talk I will close the gap between abstract data and its physical reality. Through step-by-step examples using (Geo)Pandas, (I)Pydeck, PyVista, Blender etc., I will turn basic charts into 4D stories with custom models added to geospace.
