Gantt Chart

StarStarStarStar

Used for scheduling and to show the progress of multiple tasks over time; best for project management.

StarStarStarStar

Waterfall Chart

StarStarStarStar

Visualizes cumulative effect of sequentially introduced values; best for understanding the stepwise impact of different contributing factors.

StarStarStarStar

Bar Chart

StarStarStarStar

Used to compare quantity across different categories; best when categories are discrete and not too many.

StarStarStarStar

Area Chart

StarStarStarStar

Emphasizes the magnitude of change over time; best for showing volume beneath a line chart, illustrating cumulative totals.

StarStarStarStar

Bubble Chart

StarStarStarStar

A type of scatter plot that represents three dimensions of data; best used when the data set contains three quantitative and one to two categorical variables.

StarStarStarStar

Box Plot

StarStarStarStar

Displays the distribution of a data set based on a five-number summary; best for detecting outliers and understanding the spread of data.

StarStarStarStar

Treemap

StarStarStarStar

Shows hierarchical data as nested rectangles; best for space-efficient display of hierarchical data and relative sizes.

StarStarStarStar

Choropleth Map

StarStarStarStar

A thematic map where geographic regions are colored or shaded in relation to a data variable; best for showing how a measurement varies across a geographic area.

StarStarStarStar

Dot Plot

StarStarStarStar

Displays frequency using dots; best for small to moderate sets of data where precise values for each category are needed.

StarStarStarStar

Spider or Radar Chart

StarStarStarStar

Displays multivariate data as a two-dimensional chart; best used to plot one or more groups or variables that have three or more variables.

StarStarStarStar

Line Graph

StarStarStarStar

Displays data points over a continuous interval or time span; best for showing trends and changes over time.

StarStarStarStar

Scatter Plot

StarStarStarStar

Shows the relationship between two quantitative variables; best for identifying correlations or patterns.

StarStarStarStar

Heat Map

StarStarStarStar

Represent data values using color coding; best for comparing data across multiple categories or through spatial data.

StarStarStarStar

Streamgraph

StarStarStarStar

A type of stacked area chart that is displaced around a central axis, often used to show changes in data over time; best for displaying high-volume datasets with long time periods.

StarStarStarStar

Sankey Diagram

StarStarStarStar

Visualizes the flow of data between different nodes; best for showing the distribution and conservation in a system.

StarStarStarStar

Stacked Bar Chart

StarStarStarStar

Indicates how different parts contribute to a total; best when you want to show the total size along with the composition of the categories.

StarStarStarStar

Violin Plot

StarStarStarStar

Combines a box plot with a kernel density plot; best for comparing the distribution of data across several groups.

StarStarStarStar

Pie Chart

StarStarStarStar

Shows the proportion or percentage each category represents of the total; best for illustrating part-to-whole relationships with a few categories.

StarStarStarStar

Histogram

StarStarStarStar

Visualizes the distribution of numerical data; best used when the data is continuous and you're interested in the frequency of values within intervals.

StarStarStarStar

Waffle Chart

StarStarStarStar

Utilizes a 10x10 grid to show percentages; best for visualizing parts of a whole with one or very few categories for quick comparisons.
