In the data visualization process, which stage involves charting the findings?

• A. Exploration
• B. Analysis
• C. Synthesis
• D. Presentation

Answer: (C)

Charting the findings is about weaving the results into a coherent story using visuals. After exploring and analyzing the data, synthesis brings those insights together and prepares them for communication, with charts and graphs as the primary tools to convey the combined findings. This makes synthesis the stage where the visuals are created to reflect the overall narrative, not just individual patterns. Presentation would come later, when you share the synthesized visuals with others.
