I'd like to create some interactive charts using googleVis package in R but I am a bit hesitant as I am not sure if Google will store the data I want to visualize. I have read their terms and conditions [https://developers.google.com/terms/ ] (particularly the 'Content' section) and it seems to suggest that they can but I was never any good at legal jargon.
Does visualizing my data through the API mean I submitted 'content' to Google and they can subsequently store and use it?
If so, are there any alternatives i.e. r packages that can create interactive dashboards and motion charts?

All code and data are processed and rendered in the browser. No data is sent to any server.
Not sure about googles policy on data, but here are some alternatives:
rCharts
Shiny
htmlwidgets

Is it possible to publish an RMarkdown file to Rpubs that takes input and gives out put from the Rpubs site? I want to create a simple calculator related to my job that takes a few inputs and gives an output and, if possible, publish to Rpubs for people to view and use.
SHINY: I know this is what shiny is for, creating interactive apps, but I dont know it very well or how to implement an app I create for multiple people to use, or how to imbed the link to the app, and so on. Just trying to see if this is possible in things I already know how to use
RPubs is for HTML documents that don't require R calculations on the backend. In some instances, there can be some degree of interactivity e.g., brushing and linking plots, filtering data and having the filter propagate to a plot. These happen through the crosstalk package. However, it sounds like you need a shiny app that can take inputs and have R do some calculation of those on the back end. You could host your app on shinyapps.io
It's also possible, depending on how complicated the calculations are, that the entire app could be written in native javascript, which wouldn't require a server-side computation, so could be hosted on any website.
Let me start by saying that I am not very familiar with wazuh and kibana.
I am creating a web application in Angular and it is required for me to embed wazuh charts in it.
Example chart that I need to export:
I have been told that it is possible to do it but not how to do it. I am thinking about pulling the data from API and recreating the graphs. In order to do that I was trying to figure out what library was used in wazuh to create the original graphs but I failed. Do you know the library that is used to generate those graphs? Or maybe if it is proprietary solution? Maybe you know a better way to embed those graphs in a web application?
If you need to import the Alerts level evolution graph you may recreate it by creating a custom visualization. Click on the top left menu and go to the Visualize section. Select the type of graph, an area graph in this case, and select the source, for example wazuh-alerts-*.
Add a bucket for the X axis with Date Histogram using the timestamp field, add a sub-bucket with Split series, sub aggregation Terms and field rule.level.
Once you have created and saved the visualization you may click on Share, Embed code and copy an iframe that you can paste into your application.
You can also import full dashboards with several visualizations by creating and sharing a custom Dashboard instead.
I need your advice about a project I'm gonna start on data manipulation. We own some meteorological stations acquiring data every 10 minutes. Now, we use an old data validation software that I want to update.
Recently I managed to build a web app with shiny and ggplot2 packages so we can plot or download (whole or subseted) our previously validated data sets. Now I would like to build a new app so we can plot non validated data and interactively perform validation.
Let's say we have temperature data showing usual values for a single day but with a completely wrong value (120 degrees). Is it possible to just click on that point and remove from the data set?
Googleing I read about iplots and rggobi packages but I am not sure if they fit my wishes. Please, could you point me to some packages, readings or examples so I can start my project?
Thanks in advance
I would recommend d3 (a javascript library) for building dynamic plots. Here is an example for destroying symbols. You would just need to add an onclick action to make it interactive.
rCharts can be used to interface between R and javascript. Here is an example with d3.
The nice thing about rCharts is that it can interface with many javascript libraries.
I'm trying to set up a choropleth map for US counties, either as a layer on a map service (for example, using leaflet) or as a plain SVG/VML figure.
The thing is: whereas Chrome or Firefox render either option perfectly, IE8 does not handle so many polygons, and its loading times are unacceptable.
Before falling back to generating static PNGs server side, do you know any lightweight component (not Flash-based) that can generate such a visualization in IE8? Thank you!
In increasing order of complexity :
Creating a choropleth map can be done very easily with Tableau. The visualization can be exported and made interactive. Tableau is not a free software, but you will have a trial period to try it.
We also had students implementing their choropleth map using D3 with the map imported using JSON. As far as I know, this didn't pose problems with IE, although I didn't specifically test them on IE.
Finally, the winning team in one of our course contest created a map (although not a choropleth, they still visualized data on it) using Processing. This usually involves more coding (Java-like), but doable and you can test their visualization on an IE8 browser (at this link - the visualization is very slow to load but this is more due to their extraction of tweeter feeds rather than the map itself).
In general, you can see our students' visualization at this URL, several of them having map visualizations - and you can browse technologies used for choropleth maps at the visualizing.org website.
Does anyone know of software or flex/flash/as3 source or visualisation software that could be used to make interactive graphs, where the user would enter a query that would pull data from a MySQL database and the user would build a sunburst or icicle graph by dragging and dropping items into a tree-like structure and they would be able to view the graph? i have attempted to use flare but my programming skills are pretty bad. So far from what i gather, flare only allows the graphing of defined datasets rather than allowing a user to modify the dataset and thus creating a new dataset.
Help?
This is far too big for the scope of a single question. You're going to need to write at least a few different pieces.
1.) Access to the database and a way to view datasets
2.) Control handlers to drag and drop datasets onto your chart object
3.) A chart object that can handle receiving dropped dataset items and render itself accordingly.
There are lots of good charting frameworks out there including Flare, Axiis, Flex charting, Fusion Charts, iLog Elixir. I'm not sure what you're trying to do but any one of those should be able to serve as your charting piece.
We worked on a project that used Flare and Flex. We had to provide the data to Flare in an XML format called GraphML, so we had code to convert the data into the required format in our C# backend, and then we passed it to Flex. There were naff all tutorials for it though, so took some time to figure it out.
There is a properly cool graphing tool (although its commercial) called Kapit. Check out their Diagrammer and Visualizer demos. It could be the case that its worth the spend.
But I agree with Mr Owen, theres some mad scope in that question:)
