Categories of data visualization:

1.) Exploratory data visualization

2.) Explanatory data visualization

The two serve different purposes, and so there are tools and approaches for each

category.

Exploratory data visualization:

Exploratory data visualizations are appropriate when we have a whole bunch of data
and you’re not sure what’s in it. When we need to get a sense of what’s inside our data set,

translating it into a visual medium .It can help we quickly identify its features.

So exploration is used to find the story of the data has to tell you.

Explanatory data visualization:

Explanatory data visualization is appropriate when we already know what the data as
to say, and we are trying to tell that story to somebody else.

So this is a process of selecting focused data that will support the story we are trying to
tell.

Hence ,Exploratory data visualization is part of the data analysis phase. Explanatory
data visualization is part of the presentation phase.
