A couple data sets that I found which could have insights gained from subjecting them to a data visualization project include a data set on historical Virginia suicide rates by sex, race/ethnicity and age kept by the United Health Foundation. This data can be used to derive trends in activity to identify at-risk groups and help those in need. Another interesting data set pertained to the state SOL Test Results data published by the VA Department of Education. Using this data in a visualization would illustrate the progress of the state's education system.
Some of my favorite visualizations on the web are published by FiveThirtyEight, a statistical analysis site that used data to predict and analyze anything from sports to politics. I keep up to date with their NFL, NBA, and soccer predication visualizations, where they utilize 100,000 simulations of each season to predict the season-end results.
