Data Visualisation Framework

The govCMS-CKAN module for Drupal 7, built by Doghouse for govCMS, brought a new dimension to dynamic data-driven content for Drupal websites.
We are collaborating again for

This is the Drupal 8 evolution of the govCMS_CKAN module, now called the Data Visualisation Framework. This suite of modules deliver greater customisability and control, increasing the number of the data types consumed by the module, and providing more accessibility for developers.
Now included are the popular, industry-standard, JavaScript libraries: C3.js, based on D3 (for charting), and DataTables (for out-of-the-box table styling). We have also updated the module to allow for more customisable visualisation placement using fields.

The modular design of the data import and visualisation formats grants better customisation options – now supporting CKAN portals and web hosted CSV data sources with more on the way. It also enables the display of data into line, bar, spline, area and scatter plots, as well as native table display, again with more formats possible.
