1. Quality of Visualization
2. Ability to understand
3. Capacity to query
• Do colors promote understanding?
• Does spacing of graphs allow for ease of viewing?
• Too many graphs per view?
• Is data easy to “digest”?
• Does data answer questions?
• Are tool-tips/info icons available for context?
• Are system issues easily identifiable?
• Are performance metrics easy to see?
How do we assess the effectiveness of data dashboards?

Assessment/ critical analysis questions:
• How well do dashboards guide viewers through the data?
• Is there a sense of the “whole”? Does the data dashboard walk viewers
through a data story?
• Do dashboards help viewer/s move data into action?
Promote shared understanding?
Is there continuous data dashboard improvement, user testing?

Pre-data dashboard• Restructure data
Tip: You may need to restructure your data from “wide” to “long.”“Long” data, or “stacked” data, has only one column of numerical data.
