Ten large data visualization sites that completely subvert the perspective of the world

The Web sites introduced in this article will change the way we look at the world and look at the conclusions in real time, visually, and perhaps bring us to a completely different perspective.

I. Global HACKER ACTIVITIES

Start the journey of the visual data tool experience from hacking activities. This fascinating map, built by security provider Norse, is essentially a snapshot of the frequency of hacking attacks around the world. It uses Norse's "honeypot" attack trap to show all real-time infiltration attacks. (Wait a little while, the DDoS attack will light your screen!) The flashing neon line and the dazzling Rainbow color match create the atmosphere of the technological warfare in the Internet era.

But don't be fooled by the beauty in front of you, each line represents an attack activity, to learn how many times a day, every minute, or every second of the world has been a malicious infiltration. The total number of actual attacks in the world is much higher than what the map can show.

Second, real-time push text

Below to take a look at the moderate content, Twettping.net provides a map showing the current worldwide real-time tweets, each individual tweets will be on the map lit a mere flash a few seconds of light points, and then there will be more light points in succession. The hotspot map shows which regions of the world are most active in push-and-send activities. The statistics at the bottom of the screen show where the 140-byte text comes from, and the @ Reply and summary label from the last record.

The tweetping map has been watching for a long time with a strong hypnotic effect, and it is possible to see how popular social media networks are. During the period I was looking at, the site tracked more than 3,500 tweets per minute.

Iii. #HashFTW

So what exactly are these tweets talking about? Trendsmap can display current world-wide discussion topics and show them in a map format. The broader the coverage of the summary label, the greater the number of people involved in the discussion. Trendsmap also has some unique features, such as what Twitter users in San Francisco are actually from Africa-and you can even learn about the world's response to a news story on the way home.

Iv. Digital Shadow

Not all social-sharing content is secure. In an effort to make the game a watchdog, Ubisoft uses digital shadow to demonstrate how much personal information they can extract from the app after gaining access to Facebook accounts.

After allowing digital shadow access to our personal account, it delves into and displays all the data it gets: The user's closest friends, the user's occupation, the user's current location, the most commonly used vocabulary, and the time it takes to release the news, the products most frequently purchased by friends, the age and educational background of the user, It even includes the actual value of the individual. If the next time you have an application that you want to associate with your Facebook account, please consider your decision carefully.

V. Data is everywhere

Another site closely related to the watchdog,-we Are data, is designed to show all the public data that users can find in a public environment. We Are data to provide detailed and nuanced information from Berlin, Paris, and London neighborhoods. The site can show the current location of all users and operational activities, its scope covers Twitter, Foursquare, Instagram, Flickr, open mobile lines, traffic lights, CCTV and ATM location plus the obvious electromagnetic area. What is even more frightening is that even the real-time position of the train will continue to change along with its line.

Clicking on a twitter icon to view the names and specific tweets of individual users from a particular location is trembling. The purpose of our Are data is to demonstrate how easy it is to get the data.

Six, ubiquitous Google eye

Let's continue with the topic of "sharing personal information in a senseless situation". The next conversation is Google Maps-a fantastic utility that has easily penetrated Android and iphone devices. But even if we don't use this app, Google has already placed eyeliner in our pocket phones.

By logging into your Google account, you will be able to view the history of your personal location as recorded by Google. Don't forget to select "Last 30 days" from the "Show" Drop-down menu on the left side of the window to see more detailed records. Yes, Google is watching every step of the way, and if you're working with a calendar tool, the tracking trail goes back a few months.

Fortunately, you can delete the history of the page directly, and you can learn how to turn off Google's location history feature. (Note that this can cause some specific perceptual services to become unavailable, such as Google Now.) )

Vii. Focus on your history

Having said so many terrible situations, let's change to a relaxed and pleasant angle. Although not part of the technology web site, the iconic History Chrome extension developed by Shan Huang can display the browser history as a site icon to visualize the results of a visual summary, so that you quickly understand where you spend your valuable time. Hover the mouse over the corresponding icon to display the specific details of the relevant page.

Is this going to make a difference in your life? But iconic history is still an interesting tool-if people want to control their work hours to avoid visiting certain sites, it even has some real value.

How many people do we know?

Now that we've learned how much time we spend on the web, let's see how much time we spend with our online friends. The MIT Immersion project is based on users ' Gmail, Yahoo, and Microsoft Exchange accounts, sorting out the objects with the largest number of messages sent. In addition, it can identify the interaction between the contacts. All of this is based on the metadata of the message, which is not a big deal in the so-called massive information gathering of the US National Security Bureau.

You can visit the website personally to view your own communication summary results. (Don't forget to click on individual contact names to get more details!) Don't be afraid, if you don't want to save metadata as an analysis material, immersion will delete it after use.

Nine, track the direction of public opinion

Newsmap can extract information from Google News to understand the views of users around the world about specific messages and create a visual representation of an interactive chart. The more popular the topic, the larger the frame of the topic; On the contrary, the less focused news has a smaller frame. Different topic types are differentiated by color-business, global news and even technology. Clicking on a topic can directly open the results associated with Google News. The Newsmap is the ability to get a real-time view of the world's people's attention to the topic, and to show the results in proportion to the level of attention.

Ten, the Reincarnation of life

The global population is now over 7 billion, and people are born and die at a rapid pace. This remarkable map simulates this critical moment, where data and light points are used to reflect birth and death (exact location) events on a map in real time. The flashing red and green dots on the map of the world help you to understand the sheer scale of this huge wheel of life-a move that numbers simply can't bring. We can also use it to feel that in addition to our own country, how many lives have come and how many souls have died in other countries.
