Comments

Data dashboards are visual displays that feature the most important information needed to achieve specific goals captured on a single screen. Effective dashboards should be designed as monitoring tools that are understood at a glance. Dashboards are useful tools because they can leverage visual perception to communicate dense amounts of data clearly and concisely.
