Great data presentations tell a story. Learn how to organize, visualize, and present data using Python, generative AI, and the cutting-edge Altair data analysis toolkit.
After you’ve crunched, sliced, and organized your data behind the scenes, you need to present it in a way that tells a story. With Python’s Altair library and generative AI tools like Copilot and ChatGPT, it’s never been easier to create intuitive data presentations.
In Data Storytelling with Python Altair and Generative AI you’ll discover:
Using Python Altair for data visualization
Using Generative AI tools for data storytelling
The main concepts of data storytelling
Building data stories with the DIKW pyramid approach
Transforming raw data into a data story
Data Storytelling with Python Altair and Generative AI teaches you how to turn raw data into effective, insightful data stories. You’ll learn exactly what goes into an effective data story, then combine your Python data skills with the Altair library and AI tools to rapidly create amazing visualizations. Your bosses and decision-makers will love your new presentations—and you’ll love how quick Generative AI makes the whole process!
Python is the second ingredient of this book. As a data journalism professor, I have experimented with many Python libraries for data visualization, such as Matplotlib, Plotly, and Seaborn. However, at the end of my experiments, I realized that the simplest library for data visualization is Altair. Unlike other libraries, Altair is declarative, thus enabling you only to focus on the output of your data visualization. Thus, this book will focus on Altair to build data visualization. Although you can find many materials on the web about Altair, they focus only on how to build raw charts. In this book, you’ll learn how to build data stories with Altair and not simply raw charts.
Last but not least, you’ll learn how to use Generative AI tools for data storytelling. This book won’t focus on Generative AI concepts and theory. Instead, you will learn how to apply Generative AI tools, including GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, and DALL-E, to data storytelling.
about the book:
Data Storytelling with Python Altair and Generative AI is the fast track to data presentations that inspire your audience and move them to action. Throughout the book, you’ll be guided by the principles of the DIKW (Data, Information, Knowledge, Wisdom) pyramid: a methodology that is the backbone of leading data management systems. Each chapter takes you hands-on with a new interesting data story, from tourist arrivals in Portugal to population growth in the USA. At every stage, you’ll see how tools like Copilot, ChatGPT, and DALL-E rapidly increase your productivity and streamline the visualization process.
about the reader:
For data analysts and data scientists experienced with Python. No previous knowledge of Altair or Generative AI required.
