Website of the Month for October - RAW Graphs

This month's website is a really useful one for those wanting to turn their dull, grey spreadsheets into engaging data visualisations. RAW Graphs is an open source data visualisation tool that creates a visual representation of complex data so that it is easy for everyone to digest.

RAW Graphs say: "Primarily conceived as a tool for designers and vis geeks, RAW Graphs aims at providing a missing link between spreadsheet applications (e.g. Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, OpenRefine) and vector graphics editors (e.g. Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, Sketch)."
"The project, led and maintained by the DensityDesign Research Lab (Politecnico di Milano) was released publicly in 2013 and is regarded by many as one of the most important tools in the field of data visualisation."
