One visual aid for showing a flow from one set of data to another is a Sankey diagram. The connections are known as links, and the objects that are linked are known as nodes. Comparing quantities at various levels is done via Sankey diagrams. Among other things, they are able to display budgets, financial outcomes, the narrative of an application process, multi-round elections, and more. On the website Our Energy System, it shows you the flow of energy in the United States. The sankey visualization is very pleasing to the eye and I like how each different type of energy has more information and each word you can click on it and it will give you brief facts about the use of energy in the United States.

Here is the sankey visualization:

As you can see they have a different color for each electricity we use in America. Then they go into another section where they give you more information. Ans then they give you the whole scale on how much energy we actually use. I also like the visualizations like the icons they used. There are also other in-depth energy systems one this website that you can use. Every single word on this sankey visualization you can click and give you more information. This is really cool and I don’t think I ever seen this type of visualization, but it is very useful and probably be using this in the future.
