Similar pursuits are information visualization  (Links to an external site.) , data visualization  (Links to an external site.) , statistical graphics  (Links to an external site.) , information design  (Links to an external site.) , or information architecture  (Links to an external site.) .[2]  (Links to an external site.)

Are There Free Infographics Builders? You bet.  Of course, if you're already a Photoshop user, you are set.  But for the rest of the world, the folks at creativebloq.com give us a list of 10 free tools for creating infographics  (Links to an external site.) . Whether you're presenting poster style or are looking for content that is visually appealing and easy for others to understand, these tools offer templates, guides and other information to do so.  Of the infographics builders listed, I have used and liked Piktochart.
