[Matplotlib-users] 2018 John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest

[Pierre Haessig]

Hi,

Is there a web page that collects the links to the results of the
previous editions ?

I found the 2013 edition website http://conference.scipy.org/jhepc2013/

I also found 2016 winner
https://scipy2016.scipy.org/ehome/146062/332971/ with links to previous
galleries, but 2014 and 2015 links are broken
(http://stsdas.stsci.edu/download/mdroe/plotting/ and
http://stsdas.stsci.edu/download/mdroe/plotting-2015/)

Best,

Pierre

>     Entries may take the definition of “visualization” rather broadly.
>     Entries may be, for example, a traditional printed plot, an
>     interactive visualization for the web, or an animation.

>  *
>
>     Source code for the plot must be provided, in the form of Python
>     code and/or a Jupyter notebook, along with a rendering of the plot
>     in a widely used format.  This may be, for example, PDF for print,
>     standalone HTML and Javascript for an interactive plot, or MPEG-4
>     for a video. If the original data can not be shared for reasons of
>     size or licensing, "fake" data may be substituted, along with an
>     image of the plot using real data.

>     Each entry must include a 300-500 word abstract describing the
>     plot and its importance for a general scientific audience.
>
>  *
>
>     Entries will be judged on their clarity, innovation and
>     aesthetics, but most importantly for their effectiveness in
>     communicating a real-world problem. Entrants are encouraged to
>     submit plots that were used during the course of research or work,
>     rather than merely being hypothetical.

>     SciPy reserves the right to display any and all entries, whether
>     prize-winning or not, at the conference, use in any materials or
>     on its website, with attribution to the original author(s).
