Where I had proposed to map a history of political knowledge over time not that long ago, I have decided to switch gears and go for a dataset that is more easily defined and quantifiable. So from Marx, Hegel, and Socrates, I go to Flamengo, Fluminense, and Vasco da Gama: I have decided to use the 38 rounds of the 2007 Brazilian National Club League Soccer Division 1 Championship.Here are a few beginning mockups…
an early version using a line graph and points obtained as the scale
an early version using a line graph and the relative ranking of the teams as the scale
the latest version which will be a bar graph of the rounds, added successively
the first version of the data mapped per team, per round
data mapped per team, per round – closer to the proper size
