Data Visualisation for Public Impact

There is an increasing amount of Government data available, both published and unpublished. How can this data be used to improve public services?

The National Audit Office uses a wide variety of visualisation methods to understand the datasets it collects to conduct audit. Rachel Kirkham will be presenting the variety of visualisations, from bar charts to maps, that can be used to generate insights and audit findings, and communicate with the public.
