At Stamen we help clients create novel and sophisticated data products, maps, and communications media. Our services are intended for people and teams “Making With Data” — people involved with and seeking additional help, expertise, and best practices in working with rich data sources to create impactful products and communications media.
Some think of this work as data visualization. Or as interactive maps and cartography. Or part of data journalism and storytelling. Or insights dashboards and analysis tools. Or tools for creators of such products. Or part of data science. Or GIS, geospatial, or another wonky industry notion. Or something else. All of these statements are true (see our work). Whatever the form, function, or industry — patterns and best practices emerge when Making With Data. Patterns that apply across client industries, business cultures, and use cases, and around which we’ve designed Stamen’s services.
Custom Data Visualization
We’ve been designing custom data visualizations and interactive experiences for over two decades. We believe better data communication empowers people to have more informed conversations about everything – from climate change and the environment to education, healthcare, and gun control. Data visualization is a rich source of sympathetic magic for ourselves and the world.
