So we redid our charts... (Part I: designs and such)

The text discusses the process of revamping the charts in a video analytics product. It highlights five specific problems that were identified with the old charts, including misleading aggregation and line charts, lack of context for data spikes, unhelpful visualizations for low-volume data, difficulty comparing dimensions, and excessive visual clutter from gridlines, axis labels, and tooltips. The text then outlines a solution involving modified line charts with filled areas, large dots for every data point, secondary bar charts to show volume impact over time, and improved responsiveness of charts. The new designs are also made color blind accessible.
