Every week brings more charts and maps into view. We pick out those worth a closer look 👇

DataViz Weekly is where we round these up, each Friday on our blog. Sometimes the subject earns it, sometimes the design choices, sometimes the way the data is brought into focus.

Here are the latest picks:

🔸 70 Years of Eurovision Lyrics
By Giuseppe Sollazzo
↳ Plotting all 1,795 Eurovision songs from 1956 to 2025 by theme and language.

🔸 California Politics Beyond Left and Right
By Aseem Shukla, Nami Sumida // San Francisco Chronicle
↳ Revealing California's political clusters through precinct-level voting patterns.

By John Cheng, Christopher Udemans // Bloomberg
↳ Tracing the yen's swings over the past year.

🔸 Britain's Second City Debate

Qlik didn't have it.
We built it for Qlik.

Just released the Circular Dendrogram extension for Qlik Sense, showing a hierarchy as the tree it actually is. Every parent-child relationship is drawn as an edge, fanning out from one center to the leaves on the rim.

Not packed by value like a treemap.
Not stacked in rings like a sunburst.
You read it by following lines, not comparing areas.
The right pick when the question is about shape, not size.

Where it fits:
→ Org charts: divisions down to people
→ Product taxonomies: categories down to SKUs
→ Account hierarchies and cost centers
→ File structures, scientific classifications, anything nested

Qlik has an org chart for top-down structures.
And a network chart for general graphs.
A radial tree was the gap.

Click a leaf and its whole chain back to the root lights up. Wide, deep trees on one screen. And because it is a real Qlik chart, exports, locale formatting, cross-filtering, etc., work out of the box.

See the full announcement on our blog.

It's v1.0. If you try it and something's missing, a layout, a measure mode, an interaction, tell us. That's what we build from.

A data map turns location into a variable.
Patterns start to take shape across space.
Geographic data viz in practice 👇

We've spotted several interesting data maps out there over the past few days. So this edition of Weekly leans spatial. The four projects we selected show what maps can add when data has a geographic side.

Dots, bubbles, connectors, choropleths: each type fits a different kind of spatial question.

This time in DataViz Weekly:

📍 146 Million U.S. Jobs by Sector
By Kyle Walker
↳ Plots U.S. jobs by workplace location across 20 sectors.

📍 Sahel Violence and Nigeria
By Ashley Kirk et al. (The Guardian)
↳ Tracks two decades of rising terrorism deaths in the Sahel region, zooming into Nigeria's hotspots.

📍 Rio de Janeiro's Sister Cities
By Georgios Karamanis
↳ Traces Rio's 93 sister city links continent by continent.

📍 To***co Smoking Endgame
By Amanda Shendruk
↳ Shows how close each country is to ending smoking, drawing on a 2024 Lancet study.

Most line charts smooth between data points.
A step line chart doesn't. That's the whole point.

Picking the right chart type for the data is half the job. Federal Reserve rates don't drift upward. They jump when the FOMC decides they jump, then hold flat until the next meeting. That's a staircase, not a slope.

Our new JavaScript tutorial builds one from scratch using ten years of real Fed data: 3,653 daily values from May 2016 to May 2026, loaded straight from the CSV file you can download from the official source.

What you'll build:
→ Step line series on a date-time scale
→ CSV loading (no manual parsing)
→ Custom tooltip with formatted dates and percentage values
→ Year-by-year axis ticks and a fixed 0–6% y-range
→ Scroller for zooming into the 2022 hiking cycle, the COVID cut, or any period

Full step-by-step walkthrough, complete code, and a live demo you can fork and tweak.

80+ years of U.S. presidential approval data.
Visualized as a vertical area chart in JavaScript.
Explained step by step in our new tutorial.

Most time-series charts run horizontally.
Sometimes it makes sense to turn them top to bottom.

We published a beginner-friendly tutorial on how to build a vertical area chart using our JavaScript charting library. For the example, we used monthly U.S. presidential approval and disapproval data from 1941 to 2025 (Gallup) and turned it into a mirrored chart showing how those numbers changed across administrations.

The tutorial walks through the full build:
→ Two mirrored area series
→ Smooth spline curves
→ Date/time scale with yearly ticks
→ Highlighted zero baseline
→ Tooltip showing the president in office and exact figures for any hovered month

The full code is included. The interactive version is available on AnyChart Playground, so you can try it, swap in your own data, tweak the visualization, and run it right away. No setup.
