Announcing the New AGU Data Visualization and Storytelling Competition!
What is it?
The AGU Data Visualization and Storytelling Competition is a contest open to 2 and 4 year undergraduate students and graduate students who are U.S. citizens. The competition winners will receive travel grants funded by AGU, complimentary registration to the AGU Fall Meeting, and the opportunity to present their visual-based story on the NASA Hyperwall. This AGU competition is funded by a generous grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
Why is this important?
Visual storytelling helps tell a story about data and the potential of data and scientific research quickly and with impact. Powerful visuals can often evoke emotion, driving a deeper level of engagement with the data and subject matter being presented. This contest is focused on creativity and presenting data in a new way.
