106 Examples of Data Visualizations A P P E N D I X G As described in Chapter 5, there are many options for visualizing data collected as part of a QOL assessment and presenting it for interpretation, analysis, and decision-making purposes. To demonstrate some possibilities, qualitative data was gathered voluntarily from research team members living within the service area of a large international airport, and quantitative data was obtained from publicly available data sets covering the same spatial area.

Examples of Data Visualizations 107 Demographics The demographic questions included in the Quality of Life Assessment Survey Tool are not required when conducting a QOL assessment, although the resulting socioeconomic and demographic data can provide useful background on the sample population and offer insight into findings from the quadrant plots. A majority of the participants identified as white (88 percent)
