Charts

The big reason you are here.

Now to the Big Purpose

Large datasets are great, tables are sexy enough, but we want to really understand the importance of our data. We want to see some visual representation on all this work in the form of beautiful charts.

So far, we have:

  1. Imported some files

  2. Turned them into tables

  3. Mutated that data with Nodules

  4. Turned those Nodules into Tables

  5. Now what?

Currently, your data can be reported on in 3 Axis.

One Axis Charts

Most data reporting is one dimensional: "Group my data by such and such column. These are things like pie, bar, and radar charts. Cool we got that and then some.

For these One Axis charts, just import your tables, give the chart a label, and select which value to report on. The One Axis charts that are currently supported are:

  • Line

  • Bar

  • Radar

  • Doughnut

  • Pie

  • Polar

After setting it all up, select Confirm and then select View on the new chart line item that was created.

Two Axis Charts

Sometimes data needs another dimension to get the point across. For this case we can use a Scatter chart.

Just start the setup like any One Axis Chart. Instead of a Report By option, you will have options for what values are to be set on the X and Y axis of this chart.

Three Axis Charts

So you have plotted your dataset as point in a graph, but it still needs to report on another value. Three Axis Charts are here. Now our points on the map can have a sized based on the Report By value to help highlight some more depth to what we want to look at. The Chart for this is the Bubble.

Chart Types are coming! If you need a certain kind of chart to inspect your data, send an email to joshua@jshoemaker.dev
