Infografik

**Infografik** (gabungan "informasi" (maklumat) dan "grafik") ialah gambaran visual grafik maklumat, data, atau pengetahuan bertujuan untuk menyampaikan maklumat dengan cepat dan jelas. Mereka dapat meningkatkan kognisi dengan menggunakan grafik untuk meningkatkan kemampuan sistem visual manusia untuk melihat corak dan tren. Usaha serupa ialah pemvisualan maklumat, pemvisualan data, grafik statistik, reka bentuk maklumat, atau seni bina maklumat. Infografik telah berkembang dalam beberapa tahun kebelakangan untuk menjadi komunikasi massa, dan dengan demikian direka dengan lebih sedikit asumsi mengenai asas pengetahuan pembaca daripada jenis pemvisualan lain. Isotip ialah contoh awal infografik menyampaikan maklumat dengan cepat dan mudah kepada orang ramai.
