数据之美一本学会可视华设计

Mollie Pettit, Elijah Meeks, and I (Amy Cesal) started this journey a year ago today. We thought maybe we would get 1,000 people interested within the first year. Instead, we have almost 12,000. Wow!

一年前，莫莉·佩蒂(Mollie Pettit)，伊莱贾·米克斯(Elijah Meeks)和我(艾米·塞萨尔(Amy Cesal)) 开始了这一旅程。我们认为第一年也许会吸引1,000名人们。相反，我们有将近12,000。哇！

关于我们的会员 (About our membership)

We have grown to 11,600 members in the course of a year. We had a crazy surge of interest in the first couple weeks, but we’ve also had steady growth since.

在一年的时间里，我们的会员已发展到11,600名。在最初的几周中，我们的兴趣激增，但此后也一直保持稳定增长。

Our membership is global. We have members from 133 countries and six continents (everywhere but Antarctica).

我们的会员是全球性的。我们有来自133个国家和六大洲(除南极洲以外的所有地区)的成员。

Many of our members are newcomers to the industry. The large majority of people have five or less years of experience in data visualization. This is perhaps unsurprising, as the prominence of data visualization has grown considerably in recent years.

我们的许多成员都是该行业的新手。绝大多数人在数据可视化方面有不到五年的经验。这也许不足为奇，因为近年来数据可视化的重要性已大大提高。

We can break down experience level even further based on type of expertise using data collected from our membership survey. Our members self-report higher skills in data science, project management, design, and storytelling. Overall, we’re a community of mostly intermediate- and advanced-level practitioners. However, we have the fewest self-proclaimed experts in data collection; I guess data collection is just really hard for almost everyone.

我们可以使用会员资格调查收集的数据，根据专业知识的类型进一步细分体验级别。我们的成员自我报告了在数据科学，项目管理，设计和讲故事方面的更高技能。总体而言，我们是一个由中，高级从业人员组成的社区。但是，我们在数据收集方面拥有最少的自称为专家；我想几乎每个人都很难收集数据。

在我们的第一年： (In our first year:)

In addition to the amazing membership growth over our first year, we’ve also been busy homing in on what DVS is all about. We are so grateful for everyone who has worked so hard to make this possible.

除了第一年的惊人会员数量增长外，我们还一直在忙于探索DVS的全部意义。我们为每个为实现这一目标而辛勤工作的人们深表谢意。

我们增加了一个结构以确保寿命 (We’ve added a structure to ensure longevity)

We are building the organizational infrastructure to help DVS be an organization that will outlast any one person or founder. Growing as a community and an organization requires a strong foundation.

我们正在建立组织基础架构，以帮助DVS成为一个可以超越任何人或创始人的组织。作为社区和组织的成长需要坚实的基础。

To that end, we incorporated as a non-profit organization and are filing for our charitable status (501c3, for those in the US). We have an 11-person elected board of directors who manage the day-to-day work of the DVS who have donated more than an estimated 5,400 hours of volunteer time in this first year. In addition, we have over 100 committee members across 10 committees. We benefit from the wisdom of our eight-person advisory council. All these volunteers make it possible for us to accomplish more for the membership!

为此，我们作为非营利组织成立，并正在申请我们的慈善身份(对于美国的慈善机构为501c3)。我们有一个由11人选举产生的董事会，负责管理DVS的日常工作，他们在第一年的捐赠时间估计超过5400小时。此外，我们在10个委员会中拥有100多名委员会成员。我们受益于我们的八人顾问委员会的智慧。所有这些志愿者使我们有可能为会员做更多的事情！

In creating our structure, we emphasized being inclusive of those early in their data viz careers and see the Data Visualization Society to their journey. We wanted to make sure to have the early-career voice represented on our board as well as in the community. To that end, we have two early-career board members, one early-career slack channel, and one monthly discussion focused on early-career questions (with more planned).

在创建我们的结构时，我们强调了将那些早期从事数据工作的人包括在内，并看到数据可视化协会的发展。我们希望确保在董事会和社区中都能代表职业早期的声音。为此，我们有两名早期职业委员会成员，一个早期职业闲暇渠道和一个每月针对早期职业问题的讨论(有更多计划)。

While establishing bylaws, creating a code of conduct, managing tax paperwork, and other minutiae may seem remarkably unexciting, these structures enable us to better form partnerships with organizations interested in supporting our mission and create new programs that our members have asked for.

在制定章程，创建行为准则，管理税务文书和其他细节的过程中，看起来似乎并不令人兴奋，但这些结构使我们能够更好地与对支持我们的使命感兴趣的组织建立伙伴关系，并创建我们成员要求的新计划。

我们一直很活跃 (We’ve been active)

We’ve published 217 articles (and counting) on our online journal, Nightingale, through Medium. We’ve paid authors, illustrators, and editors $22,200. If you are interested in contributing an article to the publication, get in touch.

我们已经通过Medium在在线期刊Nightingale上发表了217篇文章(并在不断增加)。我们已付给作家，插图画家和编辑222,000美元。如果您有兴趣为出版物撰写文章，请联系。

We’ve gained a large social media following, in some cases larger than our membership. We’re reaching beyond just data visualization practitioners to people in other fields. Twitter: 17k followers | LinkedIn: 15.6k followers | Instagram: 8k followers | Medium: 7.8k followers.

我们获得了大量的社交媒体关注，在某些情况下，其会员人数超过了我们的会员人数。我们不仅将数据可视化从业人员扩展到其他领域的人们。 Twitter： 17,000位关注者| 领英( LinkedIn)： 15.6k粉丝| Instagram： 8k粉丝| 中： 7.8k位关注者。

We’ve used these platforms to engage with people inside and outside the membership about data visualization with 1,314 tweets (that’s more than 3 tweets a day). There are 85 Slack channels, such as #connect-freelance, #share-critique, #topic-historical-viz, #topic-diversity, and #location-africa. And we’ve had 199,825 total Slack messages sent. Think of all the connections made!

我们已经使用这些平台与会员内部和外部的人员进行了有关数据可视化的讨论，其中包含1,314条推文(每天超过3条推文)。有85个Slack渠道，例如＃connect-freelance，＃share-critique，＃topic-historical-viz，＃topic-diversity和＃location-africa。我们总共发送了199,825条Slack消息。想想所有建立的连接！

We’ve held six challenges, including the current challenge about our membership.

我们面临六项挑战，包括当前有关我们成员的挑战。

We’ve partnered with many organizations like DataVizLive and Encode to support the community and give discounts to members. There’s much more of this to come in the next year.

我们已经与DataVizLive和Encode等许多组织合作，以支持社区并为会员提供折扣。明年会有更多这样的事情发生。

We’ve collected links to resources around data visualization that were previously scattered across the internet including:

我们已经收集了指向数据可视化资源的链接，这些链接以前分散在Internet上，包括：

But I’m sure we’ve missed a whole bunch, so continue to add them.

但是我确定我们已经错过了一大堆，因此请继续添加它们。

我们还有更多工作要做。 (We still have more to do.)

One of our main priorities is starting local affiliated groups that will host events and facilitate interaction between members.

我们的主要优先事项之一是建立本地附属团体，这些团体将主持活动并促进成员之间的互动。

We hear you that Slack is overwhelming (at least 20 survey responses mentioned it 😱) and we are creating a plan to DECREASE the number of Slack channels and add more structure.

我们听说您对Slack感到不知所措(至少有20个调查答复提到了此问题)，并且我们正在制定一项计划，以减少Slack渠道的数量并增加结构。

We are proud, grateful, and amazed at what’s been accomplished in Year 1 of the DVS, but wow, we are so excited about what’s to come. For much of this year, we’ve focused on becoming an organization and building the infrastructure and processes to become sustainable. In Year 2, we are excited to take advantage of all that work and focus more on programming and outreach — to bring resources, new ideas, and opportunities to our members, and bring our members even closer together.

我们对DVS的第一年所取得的成就感到骄傲，感激和惊奇，但是，哇，我们为即将到来的事情感到非常兴奋。在今年的大部分时间里，我们一直致力于成为一个组织，并建设基础设施和流程以实现可持续发展。在第二年，我们很高兴能够利用所有工作，并更多地专注于编程和外展活动-为我们的会员带来资源，新想法和机会，并使我们的会员更加紧密地团结在一起。
