Cetic.br enhances survey analysis with new data visualization portal
Users will be able to cross data, follow historical series, export results, among other features
The largest database on access and use of Information and Communication Technologies in Brazil now has, as of this Tuesday (07), a more accessible and interactive visualization. This is the Data Visualization Portal, a new section on the website (https://cetic.br/) of the Regional Center for Studies on the Development of the Information Society (Cetic.br), of the Brazilian Network Information Center (NIC.br). With this portal, indicators from all surveys conducted since 2005 can be visualized through charts, maps, tables, and the data can be analyzed with numerous possibilities of interpretations based on different cross-variable analyses.
These databases contain statistics on the use and access of ICTs in households, companies, healthcare establishments, schools, non-profit organizations, government, and public access centers. “Previously, the data was available on our site in an isolated and static manner, each indicator was separate from the others. Today, the user can refine the search and quickly extract the information that is most interesting to them,” explains Alexandre Barbosa, manager at Cetic.br. “This allows, for example, public managers, researchers, academics, technology industry professionals, and content producers to use this data strategically in their respective fields of activity,” he adds.
To exemplify the use of the portal, Cetic.br provides a video that details, in an educational manner, the main features available. It is possible, for instance, to observe the evolution of an indicator over time through the historical series, compare different indicators from the same survey, cross data and identify new groupings, as well as view all the information of an indicator in the chosen category. The new portal also has the option to export results in different formats and share data on social networks.
When selecting an indicator, the user can investigate subcategories, such as, for example, by age group, gender, social class, and region, etc. As a result, they can observe from ICT Households data that currently class A uses mobile phones more for map consulting than for gaming, while class C uses the device more for entertainment than for location. Or that, based on the ICT Kids Online Brazil indicators, children have a higher perception of internet risks than their parents. Access the portal and explore the possibilities: https://cetic.br/.
