How do I make data visualization accessible?

Ensure the data and variables are clearly labeled. Make sure there's sufficient contrast between graph colors so people with color blindness can distinguish the colors. Consider complementing the graph with a table of information so that it can be read more easily by screen reader users and when compressed to mobile.

Are layout tables accessible?

Layout tables are also not supposed to be used in HTML5. It is sometimes suggested, even by some accessibility advocates, that layout tables are bad for accessibility. In reality, layout tables do not pose inherent accessibility issues. There are certainly many worse things that you could do in terms of accessibility.

What does accessibility mean when it comes to communicating with data?

Making data visualizations accessible means that users will not miss important information and that your visualization will be more understandable for everyone.
