Features

  • Intuitive and easy to use. This CKAN extension enables users to easily build and visualize charts that are simple to use.
  • Predefined charts. Administrators can create meaningful charts for users as CKAN views, so they can immediately visualize and understand the data.
  • Standalone chart viewer. The extension allows the chart viewer to be embedded on third-party websites without creating CKAN views.
  • Intelligent chart type selection. Depending on the data types of the columns that are chosen, the extension automatically chooses the most appropriate type to visualize the data.
  • Drag-and-drop columns. Creating a chart is as easy as dragging a column from the list of all available columns into the X or Y axis.
  • Color attribute. Data in the chart can be grouped based on the selected column and colored for each distinct value.
  • Visually distinct columns. All available columns that can be dragged are color coded based on the data type of the column and have a specific icon defined in a legend.
  • Chart types. The viewer supports the following types of chart: bar, line and point, with more coming in the next release.
  • Customizable color palette. The extension comes with a default color palette that is using carefully chosen colors that are accessible, with the possibility to change them and add additional ones from a configuration page.
