Better World Flux

http://www.betterworldflux.com/

Better World Flux was created as an entry for the World Bank Apps for Development competition. The site aims to raise awareness for the UN Millennium Development Goals by letting users visualize and share stories that are hidden in the World Bank Open Data. In essence the Flux is a glorified histogram. It displays a snapshot of the world state for a given year; green being good and red being bad. Within each colour of the Flux are a number of countries and the width of the Flux corresponds to the total number of people living in those countries. The width of the Flux is calculated on a log scale so that variations are more visible. Countries were assigned a colour based on a composite score calculated as the geometric mean of the user-selected indicators for any given year.
