Tips for presenting data in tables

• Table titles should be concise and descriptive, presenting the reader/viewer with a clear idea of
– the table’s content
– the population included
– the reference period
E.g. “Share of adults aged 15 years and older living with HIV, who are
women, 1990, 2002, 2006 (Percentage)”
• Columns and rows should have a heading/stub identifying the data presented
Tips for preparing clean, comprehensible data tables

Tips for preparing clean, comprehensible data tables
• The unit of measure should be mentioned either in the title of the table or in the column/row headings/stubs
• For clarity, row/column arrangement should follow a standard (natural or logical) order, e.g. alphabetical, geographical, by magnitude
• The use of decimal points within tables must be consistent
• Numeric values should be right-justified
• The source of data must always be specified

Tips for presenting data in graphs

• Graphs should be visually appealing and easy for readers/viewers to comprehend
• Graphs take up space so they should illustrate only important points
• Do not use graphs if you have too few or too many values, or values show little variation
• Choose a clear graphical display The most appropriate type depends partly on the number of
categories to be represented and their relative size
• Graphs should be understandable by themselves, i.e. the title and subtitle should refer to – the content – the population– the reference period
Tips for preparing clean, comprehensible graphs
![Page 25: Tips for the presentation of data Presentation by: Astrid Marschatz](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568146b6550346895db3dcbd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• For clarity, arrangement should follow a natural or logical order, e.g. alphabetical, geographical, by magnitude
• Redundant features such as excessive gridlines and labels or unnecessary 3-D effects should be avoided, since they crowd the plot area and risk distracting the reader/viewer
• All axes should be properly labeled. The unit of measurement for each axis must be clear, and tick marks and gridlines included where necessary
• Axis scales should start with the minimum value. If scale breaks are
used, these should be marked with a symbol
• The source of data must always be specified

• They should be visually appealing and easy for readers to comprehend
• Maps take up space so they should illustrate only important points • Maps should be understandable by themselves, i.e. titles should refer

• Maps should be accompanied by a legend, and by labels when necessary
• The source of data must always be specified
