Visualizing Data in GitHub

Tabular Data

GitHub renders tabular data, .csv (comma-separated) and .tsv (tab-separated) files.

When files are viewed, any .csv or .tsv file in GitHub will automatically render as an interactive table, with headers, row numbering and the ability to search.

Examples:

• War of 1812 Points of Interest
• Farmer Markets

Geospatial Data

GitHub supports rendering geoJSON (.geojson) and topoJSON (.topojson) files with GitHub repositories.

Examples:

• War of 1812 Points of Interest

• Farmer Markets

• https://github.com/benbalter/congressional-districts/blob/2233c76ca5bb059582d796f053775d8859198ec5/IL/04.geojson
