May Data Visualization Meetup

The Philly Data Visualization meetup is back on May 29th at the MakeOffices space at 1635 Market St, Philadelphia, PA.

Our format consists of 1-3 talks on data visualization and all tangentially related subjects (data engineering, tools, presentation techniques, etc.)

We're still looking for a second speaker so reach out if you'd like to present.

Speakers:

Will Chase - R You Ready to Make Charts?
Listen to Will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of R for dataviz, giving several examples of what's possible with R and resources to help you get started. He'll give a short introduction to the basic concepts of building graphs in R including aesthetics, geoms, and themes, building examples along the way.
