Abstract
In a world filled with data, it is expected for a nation to take decisions
informed by data. However, countries need to first collect and publish such
data in a way meaningful for both citizens and policy makers. A good thematic
classification could be instrumental in helping users navigate and find the
right resources on a rich data repository as the one collected by Colombia's
National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE). The Visual Analytics
Framework is a methodology for conducting visual analysis developed by T.
Munzner et al. [T. Munzner, Visualization Analysis and Design, A K Peters
Visualization Series, 1, 2014] that could help with this task. This paper
presents a case study applying such framework conducted to help the DANE better
visualize their data repository, and present a more understandable
classification of it. It describes three main analysis tasks identified, the
proposed solutions and the collection of insights generated from them.
