New and innovative data visualisations
Opta's unique data collection system enables us to capture exactly how the major events have occurred within any game, across a number of sports.
This means that not only can our data be used for simple panels and tables, they can also be used to highlight goals, tries, centuries and other major incidents in a more exciting and engaging way.
Graphics for print & online
Our data is collected live and tagged with x/y co-ordinates and time-stamps. This means that it is ideal to highlight what happened and when. This level of detail in a data feed means that Opta data is an excellent base to create graphics that highlight a particular move or series of incidents throughout a match or a season.
Highlight talking points and drive the debate
The use of graphics is a good way to back up the point of a star pundit or high-profile journalist. They can be used to bring a report to life, or focus the attention of a pre-match report.
They can also be used to accompany big ticket features, interviews or seasonal review pieces.
