BUBBLE MAP

Description:

  • A bubble map uses circles of different size to represent a numeric value on a territory.
  • It displays one bubble per geographic coordinate, or one bubble per region (in this case the bubble is usually displayed in the baricentre of the region).
  • Bubble Maps are good for comparing proportions over geographic regions without the issues caused by regional area size, as seen on Choropleth Maps.
  • A major flaw with Bubble Maps is that overly large bubbles can overlap other bubbles and regions on the map, so this needs to be accounted for.
  • Bubble Map has X & Y axis.
  • The x-axis is nothing but each end of the spider and each step of the spider considered as Y-axis.
  • Zero point of the radar chart starts from the centre of the wheel. Towards the edge of the spike, a point reaches, the higher the value.
  • It is a X vs (Y1,[Y2]....) graph.
    • X-axis represents one set of data.
    • Y-axis can represent single or multiple data sets.
