The winners of the 2010 Visualizing.org Marathon have been announced, and the winner is Christina Beard, Christopher Clark, Chris McCampbell, and Supisa Wattanasansanee  for “One Day Cause + Effect”.

The winning visualization, One Day Cause + Effect, was lauded for its personal narrative and striking design and received the Jury’s top score for ‘understanding’ – the ability to help the reader better understand the impact of humanity’s footprint on Earth. An honorable mention goes to the School of Visual Arts Team #1 for its Pushing the Boundaries visualization that was able to use great interaction design to effectively communicate the impact of humans on our Earth. Another honorable mention was awarded to Maryland College Institute of Art’s Team #3 for its coherent analysis of data and effective storytelling in What Kind of World Do You Want?
