Data Preparation

Data preparation is a crucial step in the data visualization process because the quality and accuracy of the data directly impact the effectiveness and reliability of the visuals. Data prep involves cleaning, transforming, and organizing raw data to make it suitable for visualization. Without proper preparation, visualizations can be misleading, unclear, or even incorrect.
