Great article David. As a designer and illustrator though, I'm biased. 😉 Visuals will always be powerful tools.
I'd love to share a couple examples I've been inspired by.
While working with a new client recently (glaciologists!), I was introduced to an interactive map showing global air currents, wave patterns, water temperature, etc. It's been a helpful tool to better understand where most of the ocean warming and glacial melting is occurring on Earth.

This article by the Guardian (though a few years old) is a great example of a mixture of storytelling via interactive visualizations AND photography.

Thanks Audrey! Awesome examples of visual storytelling.
