Sketch Summary
I plan to visualize different aspects of data set using
- Multi series line chart: Time series of US imports/exports total volume/dollar ammount for each fertilizer
- Choropleth & Circle packing: Country wise annual US imports/exports
- Scatter-Plot Matrix & Heat Map: Co-occurences of fertilizer imports/exports over time
I prototyped Multi series line chart of US imports (total volume). More details about the sketch can be found
