[Year 12 IT Apps] Data Visualisation request

[Kevork Krozian]

Hi Mark,

 It is the other beast I am afraid . Here is Renee's reply:

Hi Kevork,
No is was data visualisation - so use of data in various processing to display
statistics for example. I think because ...... it would relate
to mapping of data.

regards Renee

Hi Kevork.  Does Renee mean tools for "visualising thinking" as per ITA 
U3O2?

"Data visualisation" is a beast of a different flavour entirely.

If the former, I use Inspiration.
