Affiliated groups are local communities associated with the Data Visualization Society. To become a DVS affiliated group, please apply here.

One of the most important goals of the Data Visualization Society is to help foster the data visualization community, making it open and accessible to new people looking to get involved in discussing ideas, teach one another, and learn from each other. Affiliated Groups help achieve this goal at the most granular level by building local data visualization communities.

We support and encourage local communities beyond the affiliated groups listed below. See the meetup group spreadsheet for other local communities.
