Decide on the type of information design that best illustrates your

insights. Use Excel to generate charts that will guide the visual
proportions of your infographic. Import these proportions into Illustrator
and create your infographic. to include text, but be sure to use it
strategically -- it is always better to show than to tell. Because you are
using a minimum of two datasets, you can decide on whether to
represent them in one infographic (remember Minard) or create two or
more smaller infographics. If you create more than one, be sure that
they are designed in such a way that it looks like they belong together.
Import your datasets into Mapbox Studio and determine the best styling
to make your insights visible and easy to understand. Maken sure that
your map, infographic and presentation have the same visual identity
(same colours, typography, etc.)
