Data graphs and tables
Most data compiled for Compass key measures are public information and may be reproduced for free with appropriate citation, along with our url, mncompass.org. This citation is provided below each data graph.
Copying a data graph directly into your article or presentation. Right+click on one of the interactive Flash maps or graphs to view an export menu. Choose an export format (JPG, PNG, PDF), and the image will be captured and downloaded to your browser as a separate file. Alternately, to capture the entire page as a graphic, use the "print screen" button found on most keyboards and then paste into your word processing, presentation, or graphics program.
You may need to re-size the picture or trim off the extra by cropping (found under "format" for pictures in Word) but remember to include the citation with the graph.
You can also click on the "download (.csv)" link by each graph, and use the raw data to create your own graph. If you want the data for an online article or blog, feel free to embed a link directly to the graph you would like to show.
