Data journalism and its contemporary use
Indra, Jan ; Čermák, Miloš (advisor) ; Jirků, Jan (referee)
The rapid development of technology in the last decades caused an extreme growth in the amount of available information. We live in an era, where information whirls around us almost all the time, thus it is becoming increasingly difficult to have a clear notion about the world and keep track of what is going on. Media realise this development and they are forced to react. One of such reactions is the emergence of a new trend in journalism called data journalism. "Data-driven journalism" is principally based on thorough and critical analysis of various amounts and types of data, and its goal is to reveal new insights. Insights about data which might be key for complex understanding of social phenomena in the 21st century. This paper presents data journalism as a unique field of journalistic work, it defines data journalism and describes some of the processes that lead to creating its output. The practical part of the paper presents its own data journalism project, which attempts for an original analysis and visualisation of the Czech Trade Inspection open data sources.
