An inconvenient graphic - visual analytics 1不便圖形-視覺分析
February 12th, 2007 | by ian | 2007年2月12日|由伊恩|Some graphics from An Inconvenient Truth have been posted to Flickr.某些圖形由一不方便的真相已張貼到Flickr 。 Copyright has most certainly been violated here but I suspect Gore would prefer the message spreads and perhaps this will inspire more folks to check out the movie.版權已大部分被侵犯，當然在這裡，但我懷疑戈爾希望的訊息傳播，也許這將激勵更多的鄉親簽出電影。
This graph showing a sharp rise in CO2 has generated a lot of controversy, especially because of the extrapolation of future CO2 levels.此圖形顯示急劇上升，在CO2產生了許多爭議，特別是由於外推未來的二氧化碳含量。 For an excellent analysis of the controversy and a discussion about how visualization approaches such as Gore’s slideshow can be used to turn complex data into information, look no further than David Womack’s excellent article:為一個很好的分析，爭議和討論有關如何可視化的做法，如戈爾的幻燈片，可以用來把複雜的數據轉化為信息，不要再觀望，比國寶沃馬克的優秀文章： Seeing is believing: Information visualization and the debate over global warming看到的是，以為：信息可視化和辯論，全球氣候變暖 . 。
Excepted from the above:例外的從上述：
Information visualization is able to communicate the intricacies of global warming in a way no other discipline can.信息可視化是能夠溝通，錯綜複雜的全球變暖的方式，沒有其他紀律可以。 Its messages can be immediate and powerful, without sacrificing the level of detail necessary to represent the complex subject accurately.其信息可以直接和強大的，又不犧牲的詳細程度要代表複雜的課題，準確。 Not only is information visualization helping scientists and politicians communicate with the public, it is a primary tool for scientific study, and for the study of science itself.不僅是信息可視化，幫助科學家和政治家與市民溝通，這是一個主要工具，科學的研究，並為研究科學本身。 It is particularly telling that even the medium of film could not compete with the power of these visualizations.特別是告訴，即使是中等的電影無法競爭的權力，這些視覺效果。 According to “An Inconvenient Truth” director Davis Guggenheim, “I thought, a film about a slide show?根據“一不方便的真相”導演戴維斯古根海姆， “我認為，電影放映幻燈片呢？ A filmed lecture?一拍演講？ I don’t get it.我不獲取它。 And then I saw his slide show.然後我看到他的幻燈片放映。 The information in it is so powerful, and we all just felt like, what if we could give people a front-row seat to this.”信息在它是如此強大，我們都只是感覺像什麼，如果我們能夠給人民一個前線排座椅，以這“ 。
Wider adoption of visual analytics, while useful for scientific analysis and “misuseful” or easily manipulated for special interests, will at least stimulate wider debate and analysis by increasing the accessibility of data to society (see更廣泛地採用視覺分析，而有用的科學的分析和“ misuseful ”或容易操縱，為特殊利益，將至少有刺激更廣泛的辯論和分析，增加獲得的數據向社會（見 Gapminder gapminder ). ） 。 And this, I dare to believe, will lead to good things.而這，我不敢相信，這將導致好東西。

I take it the usual bastards have accused Gore of presenting misuseful information in his slide show then?我是否可以慣常的雜種指責戈爾介紹misuseful信息在他的幻燈片放映，然後呢？ Aggie and saw the movie at the theatre here in Barbados when it was released. aggie看到電影在這裡劇院在巴巴多斯當它被釋放。 I thought it was very well done, and thought Gore came across as an honest, well-meaning man.我還以為這是很好的工作要做，以為遇到了戈爾作為一個誠實的，本意良好的男子。 Go figure!去的數字！
