He reminds us that it&#8217;s not just about putting up charts but about telling stories with the data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combining these recommendations with the capabilities of the SAC Visualization Gallery results in a variety of charts that can be used depending on the type of information we aim to convey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deviation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These charts emphasize variations between more and less. They can be used in surveys regarding sentiments (positive, neutral, negative).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Distribution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These serve to display values for a set of predetermined data and how frequently they occur. The most well-known charts in this category are histograms and cumulative curves, for instance, to indicate the distribution of age and gender in a specific region&#8217;s population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/11062b_372b0cff6a4a4998843c1e9c27dddcff~mv2.jpg\/v1\/fill\/w_740,h_493,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto\/11062b_372b0cff6a4a4998843c1e9c27dddcff~mv2.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Correlation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It shows the relationship between two or more variables that progress over time. Examples of this can be inflation versus unemployment, or income versus life expectancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Magnitude<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It displays size comparisons. These comparisons can be absolute or relative, depending on the degree of accuracy being sought. Bars are the classic model of a graph for this type of data, although different sizes of circles or rectangles are also used nowadays. The key in this case is to indicate the figure that each element represents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parts of a whole<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When we want to show the breakdown of a single element into its different parts. The first graph that comes to mind in this case is the pie chart, which divides a complete circle into different slices. For example, it is widely used when showing the division of the electorate among different political parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/nsplsh_716670342d556436467967~mv2_d_3048_2024_s_2.jpg\/v1\/fill\/w_740,h_491,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto\/nsplsh_716670342d556436467967~mv2_d_3048_2024_s_2.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ranking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The conventional choice for highlighting the winner among a list of data. Classic for making quick efficiency comparisons among all the elements. This reference comes from the sports world and the Olympic medal table, which can be applied to any business area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, the expert&#8217;s recommendations are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>No agregues m\u00e1s de 7 elementos a considerar o comparar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mant\u00e9n una variedad de colores limitada y nunca colores demasiado brillantes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Evita las formas en 3D sobre todo para los c\u00edrculos y rect\u00e1ngulos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Marca claramente los ejes para que tu audiencia sepa muy bien lo que se est\u00e1 comparando<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>En cada diapositiva, evita un n\u00famero mayor a 4 gr\u00e1ficos y organ\u00edzalos a manera de narraci\u00f3n de izquierda a derecha y de arriba hacia abajo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to learn more recommendations, visit the section of our website dedicated to Data Analytics and discover how data storytelling can help you make better business decisions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not all graphs tell the same story about your data.
