Would you consider adding the german language charts that Neurath and his team created when working at the "Gesellschafts- und Wirtschaftsmuseum" in 1920s Vienna, like the "bildstatistisches Elementarwerk"?
BTW, there currently is an exhibition about Isotype at the "Wien Museum" (City Museum of Vienna) titled "Knowledge for All. ISOTYPE – the Picture Language from Vienna". It runs through April 5th, 2026.
IMO, it is well worth a visit. I am there at least once a week as they offer public workshops about various aspects related to creating Isotype charts.
Very nice!

I’m focused on English-language first. Then maybe earlier German stuff.
Love, love, love!!
And very nice touch to add the British to US spelling—I get tripped up by that quite a bit when I search library catalogues.
Thank you for putting this out for the rest of us to explore 🙏
It's growing as more candidates are detected in titles and OCR text. So far we have:
const SPELLING_MAP: Array<[string, string]> = [
["colour", "color"],
["labour", "labor"],
["centre", "center"],
["organisation", "organization"],
["organise", "organize"],
["programme", "program"],
["defence", "defense"],
["theatre", "theater"],
["grey", "gray"],
["travelled", "traveled"],
["analyse", "analyze"]
];
It's the 'z' / 's' spelling that'd do me in all the 'analyse'/'analyze', etc you could get in data visualisation (visualization' 😂)
This will be such a cool resource, thank you
