OC [OC] Overall ranking for 51+ Countries

Post image

My sheets document includes the sources, but the ranking uses 13 different sources. Sadly, not every country is included in every source so you will see blank spaces for countries that are left out in the data. I've also created a correlation index to see how different metrics matched up with each other and you can see the data I used for each ranking.

Hope you like it, lemme know if you have any questions.

Color scheme is rough. Id suggest going from white to a single color.

That makes sense. I did it this way so you can tell for individual countries that were in the middle were either leaning on extreme or another.

Ok it looks like the values start at zero and go one direction so I’d typically go this route, but if there is a “average” value and you want two colors then you should start with something like orange and blue. Green and red should typically not be used together due to accessibility reasons.
