The visualizations below are made possible by dc.js , which is a cool javascript library with native cross filter support for exploration of multidimensional datasets. Other javascript libraries used here are d3.js , a highly popular javascript library which has revolutionized data visualization and crossfilter.js , which enabled fast multidimensional filtering for coordinated views. The data from Twitter Streaming API and Google Trends were used for these visualizations.

The first set of visualizations provided here is aimed at showing the popularity of tennis among the US population. We have provided two chloropeth maps which clearly show the popularity of tennis among the US population. The first map looks at the tweets distribution for the keyword "tennis" for US.
