Chord Diagram of Activity Transitions

Description:

This visualization showcases a chord diagram that represents the transitions from and into various activities. The unique aspect of this chord diagram is its ability to depict both the volume and the direction of transitions between activities, providing a holistic view of how activities are interconnected over time.

Visualization Insights:

In the chord diagram, activities are represented as segments around the perimeter of a circle. The ribbons connecting these segments symbolize the volume and direction of transitions between activities. A wider ribbon indicates a higher volume of transitions, providing visual emphasis on dominant patterns.

Utility:

This chord diagram is especially beneficial for understanding complex relationships and patterns between activities. By identifying dominant transitions, stakeholders can optimize workflows, improve productivity, or refine user experiences in various applications, from software usability studies to industrial operations.

Interactive Features:

Users can hover over individual segments or ribbons to get detailed insights into the volume of transitions between activities. This interactivity allows for deep dives into specific transition patterns and enhances the user's comprehension.

Technological Stack:

Framework: Custom function using JavaScript libraries. Data Format: JSON.
