This infographic shows the amount of foreign students moving to Piemonte in the period from 1994 to 2008.

The aim is to highlight the provenance of the students for each year by using pie charts for a quick visual comparison; flows are subdivided in 6 chromatic clusters, each referred to a continent.
The size of each pie chart is determined by the total numerical amount of students for each year, also indicated below. More numerical information specify the number of visits for each state, through a "tag cloud" metaphor.

The source of the information is the site www.dati.piemonte.it, an Open Data initiative launched by the Region itself.

This infographic shows the amount of visits to the italian region of Piemonte and their provenance.
The flow has been divided in three main categories:
EU - European states;
EX - Extra-European states;
ITA - Italian regions.
Each category has been respectively divided in the following groups:
EU: Northern, Southern, Eastern, Central Europe, other european states;
EX: North America, South America, Asia, Africa, Oceania, other countries;
ITA: all regions are shown.
The aim of this visualization is to quickly highlight the number and the provenance of each flow of visits towards each specific Piemonte province, and most of all to put these data in proportion, also summing up the top countries. Each flow has been visualized through the metaphore of barcodes, for obtaining a "chromatic worldwide barcode" identifying a sort of "Piemonte DNA".
