Verifiable Information Graph

Too often we see bunch of graphs, with information that seems weird.

What would be nice is to be able to take a photo of it, and verify that it makes sense. E.g. check that a percentage graph adds up to 100%

Also if there is a QR code on it, scanning it would grabs the original dataset, and reconstruct the graph inside your smartphone, letting you see if it's the same graph.

Plus being regenerateable information, means it allows for remixing of the information, e.g. what if you want to see the moving average over time rather than just the average?

       //Can anyone say "excel"//   

       Yes, at least better than I can say "jhomrighaus" or "mofosyne".
