To create visualizations that better disseminate COVID-19 related information to the general public with regards to the ongoing infodemic, China Data Lab collaborated with Harvard CVT (Coronavirus Visualization Team) uses workflow tool KNIME to create dynamic maps which can be easily replicated, reproduced or extended by any researchers. Over 20 global countries COVID-19 cases animated maps are published on STCenter (NSF Spatiotemporal Center) COVID-19 Gateway.
