Decision Visualization
Overview
The Decision Visualization skill provides specialized visualization capabilities for decision support, creating clear, actionable visual representations that communicate analysis results effectively to decision-makers and stakeholders.
Capabilities
- Decision tree diagrams
- Strategy tables and consequence matrices
- Trade-off scatter plots
- Value-of-information graphs
- Confidence/uncertainty bands
- Waterfall charts for sensitivity
- Heat maps for MCDA
- Interactive dashboards
Used By Processes
- Executive Dashboard Development
- Structured Decision Making Process
- Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA)
- Decision Documentation and Learning

Design Principles
- Clarity: Remove chart junk, maximize data-ink ratio
- Accuracy: No distortion, appropriate scales
- Efficiency: Quick comprehension, key insights prominent
- Actionability: Clear implications for decisions
- Accessibility: Color-blind friendly, alt text provided
Best Practices
- Match visualization type to data and message
- Use consistent color schemes across related charts
- Include clear titles and axis labels
- Highlight key takeaways with annotations
- Provide interactive features for exploration
- Export to multiple formats for different uses
- Include data tables for accessibility
Integration Points
- Receives data from all analysis skills
- Feeds into Data Storytelling for narratives
- Supports Executive Dashboard Development
- Connects with Decision Journal for documentation
