Abstract - Big Data has changed the way we manage, analyze and leverage data in many industries. One of the most likely areas where it can be applied to make a change is healthcare. By leveraging on visualized data, analysts and researchers can catch the trends and perspectives easily and efficiently. In fact, related institutions have to collect and manage mass of data to do healthcare and sociology studies. In sight of this need, we sought to make smoking data as meaningful and clear as possible. We designed a dynamic and interactive visual analytics dashboard to allow analysts and researchers to explore and analyze data from International Mortality and Smoking Statistics (IMASS), Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) and Global Burden of Disease (GBD) to gain valuable insights about worldwide prevalence of smoking, consumption of tobacco products and death caused by smoking-related diseases.
