“We really enjoyed the work that Flux did in mapping and creating social network data visualizations. Flux was quickly able to produce detailed GIS and social networking maps - giving us a variety of options and displays to work with. Will also worked with us to accommodate changes along the way. Open Society Foundations highly appreciated the recommendations that Flux provided that helped our board and management team get the most from the data visualization.”
Responsibilities: Flux performed a social network analysis and created data visualizations for the Fiscal Governance Program under Open Society Foundations. The data visualizations created by Flux discovered patterns in how global tax coalitions and networks interact across the world. Flux also evaluated the data that was used, and created a series of suggestions for how the visualizations could be improved maximize the benefits of the results.
