The power of data to communicate information increases multifold when it is presented in pictures. The EPDC’s data visualization resources provide users with over 5000 ready-made graphs, maps, and visual profiles. The EPDC leverages the power of Google Earth to map its data and provide access to resources. All resources can be downloaded.
