“…The term "scrollytelling" is a combination of "storytelling" and "scrolling". It is a scrolling-based visual narrative form which is widely used in data-driven articles [94]. Scrollytelling articles usually start with a full-screen photo or video and scroll through the next part of the content [94].…”

“…It is a scrolling-based visual narrative form which is widely used in data-driven articles [94]. Scrollytelling articles usually start with a full-screen photo or video and scroll through the next part of the content [94]. A similar form of visual narrative to scrollytelling is the slideshow [98], a digital image display technique that takes the viewer through the stages of the story one by one.…”

In recent years, narrative visualization has gained a lot of attention. Researchers have proposed different design spaces for various narrative visualization types and scenarios to facilitate the creation process. As users' needs grow and automation technologies advance, more and more tools have been designed and developed. In this paper, we surveyed 122 papers and tools to study how automation can progressively engage in the visualization design and narrative process. By investigating the narrative strengths and the drawing efforts of various visualizations, we created a two-dimensional coordinate to map different visualization types. Our resulting taxonomy is organized by the seven types of narrative visualization on the +x-axis of the coordinate and the four automation levels (i.e., design space, authoring tool, AI-supported tool, and AI-generator tool) we identified from the collected work. The taxonomy aims to provide an overview of current research and development in the automation involvement of narrative visualization tools. We discuss key research problems in each category and suggest new opportunities to encourage further research in the related domain.

“…This also supports the concept of staged access. Introductory concepts are given with intuitive visualizations, which provide overview, reduce complexity, and are compelling to foster uptake, 55 such as illustrations, animated visualizations, or interactive storytelling 60 (scrollytelling 61 ). For the advanced exploration of scenario data and indicators, we follow the idea to avoid perceptual stress 62,63 by complex visualization techniques, such as dimension reduction, spider diagrams, or parallel coordinates.…”

Climate change scenario services: From science to facilitating action

The goal of limiting global warming to well below 2 C as set out in the Paris Agreement calls for a strategic assessment of societal pathways and policy strategies. Besides policy makers, new powerful actors from the private sector, including finance, have stepped up to engage in forward-looking assessments of a Paris-compliant and climate-resilient future. Climate change scenarios have addressed this demand by providing scientific insights on the possible pathways ahead to limit warming in line with the Paris climate goal. Despite the increased interest, the potential of climate change scenarios has not been fully unleashed, mostly due to a lack of an intermediary service that provides guidance and access to climate change scenarios. This perspective presents the concept of a climate change scenario service, its components, and a prototypical implementation to overcome this shortcoming aiming to make scenarios accessible to a broader audience of societal actors and decision makers. ll

This visual case study was built to study the effectiveness of scrollytelling in tandem with tile grid maps. Specifically, we built this interactive based on Google’s Community Mobility data measuring people’s movement before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. We designed a dynamic and interactive format to display auto-generated narratives synchronized with the context of the grid map. We believe the use of narratives in grid map context will be a useful storytelling format. This paper describes the design decisions that went into building this interactive format.
