The title may sound scary, but data visualisation is a way of making the complex simple: in a nutshell, it is the art of presenting data and information as graphs, charts, or maps. Data visualisation is valuable in highlighting things that you might not otherwise see readily in text and lists of values and numbers, enabling your audience to grasp the key data more quickly and easily.

The continuing wet weather along the east coast of Australia creates favourable conditions especially for the Australian white ibis, Threskiornis moluccus, and its cousin, the straw-necked ibis (T. spinicollis). Known affectionately as the ‘bin chicken’ or ‘tip turkey’, the white ibis, traditionally more of an inland species, has adapted well to urban coastal environments.
Many parts of eastern Australia have experienced some extreme summer weather in the past few months. Avisure is closely monitoring these seasonal conditions, and the impact of the flooding, which has occurred almost the length of the east coast, on wildlife behaviour.
