Scatter and bubble
Points on two axes that show how measures relate.
The idea
Scatter and bubble charts plot one measure against another, so each point is a thing placed by two values. They reveal correlation, clusters and outliers that tables hide, and a bubble's size can carry a third measure. They reward readers who explore, so give them labels and tooltips.
Where to use it
- Testing whether two measures move together
- Positioning items on two axes, such as cost against value
- Spotting outliers and clusters
- Comparing countries or companies on three measures at once
