The idea
Circle packing nests circles inside their parent circles, so size shows the amount and containment shows the hierarchy. It is less exact than a treemap but friendlier to look at. Use it for exploring a category tree with a few levels.
Where to use it
- Budgets from department to line item
- Product catalogues and file structures
- Topics and sub-topics in a text
- Organisation structures with sizes
