Promoting Accessibility in Duke Data Visualization
About In nearly all disciplines, there is an increasing push to promote accessibility. Data visualization should be no different. For my undergraduate honors thesis in statistical science, I developed a novel R package that empowers users to create colorblind-friendly visualizations with colors that conform to Duke branding guidelines. By engaging with this package, users within the Duke community and beyond can easily advance design accessibility in their ggplot2 visualizations. To learn about the motivations, development, and use of the duke package, read the full thesis, “Promoting Accessibility in Duke Data Visualization.
