ODVF is a framework that allows you to create interactive data visualizations and dashboards within Drupal. You can connect to various data sources, select from multiple charting libraries, and configure everything through a user-friendly interface. This makes it suitable for government open data portals, research dashboards, business intelligence, and nonprofit impact reporting.

Transform your data into powerful visual stories. Open Data Visualization Framework (ODVF) brings enterprise-grade data visualization to Drupal with unmatched flexibility and ease of use. Whether you're a government agency publishing open data, a university showcasing research, a business tracking KPIs, or a nonprofit demonstrating impact - ODVF adapts to your needs. Connect any data source, choose from multiple charting libraries (Chart.js, D3, Google Charts, Apache ECharts). Make your data work harder for you.
