It has been two years since we first launched our award winning data visualization tool FTA VIS. Since then our platform has helped tell thousands of data stories to explain the formation and history of free trade agreements to people all around the world. Today we are launching our new and updated version of FTA VIS. Dive on in as more deals, more information and more stories are waiting to be explored!<\/em><\/p>\n

What is FTA VIS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the past twenty and more years, Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) have spread across the global economy like wildfire. It is estimated that, since 1995, more than 400 regional trade agreements have been registered, up from a mere 124 for the 1948 \u2013 1994. Uncertain and often controversial negotiations about immense deals such as NAFTA, the TPP or TTIP create more public interest in FTAs than at any previous time in history. Using data from the DESTA database<\/a> [1], FTA VIS helps us to visualize such deals in easy to understand pictures that do not simply look amazing but provide you with a range of background information on each deal, too. With FTA VIS one picture truly is worth a thousand words.<\/p>\n
