We contribute with an understanding of the role of data labeling in the creation and contextualization of physicalizations. The graph shows how much the different properties differ from. We found that (i) the construction and contextualization of physicalizations is a highly intertwined process, (ii) data labels are integrated with physical constructs in the final design, and (iii) these are both infuenced by orientation changes. The deviation of the properties compared to the selected target is presented as a bar graph. We designed a toolkit of physical tokens and paper data labels and asked 16 participants to construct and contextualize their own data physicalizations. In this paper, we study labeling approaches as part of the overall construction process of bar chart physicalizations. The use of the following functions, methods, classes and modules is shown in this example: /. A typical example is the S&P 500 portfolio invested in the 500 largest companies listed on the US stock exchanges (NYSE, Nasdaq). Because of its spatiality, contextualization through labeling or annotation is crucial to communicate data across diferent orientations. In a market capitalization-weighted portfolio, the weights are given by the individual assets' market capitalization (or market value), divided by the sum of the market capitalizations of all assets. the weighted returns along the frontier of a portfolio. The function weightedReturnsPlot displays the investment composition, i.e. 11 portfolios - Create 11 portfolios allocated with different weights to two stocks. The function weightsPlot displays the weights composition along the frontier of a portfolio. A review - Cover four inputs gathered from previous lessons.

In contrast to screen-based visualizations, there is currently very limited understanding of how to label or annotate physicalizations to support people in interpreting the data encoded by the physicalization. These barplots plots allow for different views on the results obtained from a feasible or an optimized portfolio. BarChart02 Comparison chart BarChart04 Multi-line x-axis labels.
