Star plot
A starplot that tells illustration of selected peak ratios in oils for collected fingerprints. This particular star plot shows that 1,2,3, and7 are similar, and 4,5, and 6 are different.
Correlation Matrix
This is a correlation Matrix showing computer values for a company. The infomation would only be useful to this company, but it helps determine the point of this kind of matrix, which is correlating data.
Similarity Matrix
This is a similarity matrix for the Bible in Italian. This could be compared to other matrices, which will show the similarity between the languages. These graphs are used to compare and contrast with one another.
Stem and Leaf Plot
The stem and leaf plot generally finds the shape of distribution and it includes actual numerical values in a graph. It is better with less amounts of data. This stem and leaf plot shows that the 40's has the most numbers, in this particular amount of information.
Box plot
This box plot is typical, showing the values of car mileage, based on where they were produced (the country). It shows that Japan makes cars with the average highest mileage, but that is not to say they dont make cars with low mileage (as is determined by the dotted line underneath the box, giving levy to the information.)
Histogram
This simple histogram is showing the scores on a test, which is the independent variable, by the number of students, which is the dependent. This histogram is the more commonly seen, using " rectangles to show the frequency of data items in successive numerical intervals of equal size."
Parallel Coordinate Graph
This parallel coordinate graph shows multivariate lines and coordinates for different data sets. We are viewing all the cells measured in an organism in nine different genes.
Triangular plots
This Triangular Plot is showing a set of minerals that are in equilibrium over a narrow range of temperature and pressure. The tie lines represent mineral phases that coexist with each other.
Windrose
This is a windrose diagram. It is showing the relative frequency from which direction the winds are coming from, per 10 degrees. Basically the point is to give the windspeed, as we can see.. this is 2 mile hour winds.
Climograph
This is a graph of the climate of a midwestern state. It is measuring the drought possibilities; he bars represent the celsius temperature while the line represents the rainfall in centimeters. Together they form a climograph. yay!
Population Profile
This graph is giving a population growth count for two populations, male and female, in Mobile County ten years ago. This graph shows males as dark blue, and it appears that there are more older females than males.
Scatterplot
This is a simple scatterplot of data showing how many miles per gallon the measured cars get depending on their weight. While it doesnt give exact numbers, the points are not yet averaged on there, as the intervals are small enough to determine an accurate approximation.
Index Value Plot
This is a chart of the index value of FTAS tracker. It is the rolling-average of the index-value over 1 to 2 months, and then the daily values are plotted relative to the local average (black traces) The green line was then added for mean purposes (this is not the absolute value but the index), creating an index value plot. yay!!
Lorenz curve
This is a lorenz curve. It is comparing the actual data to the equal distribution line. The green line is the perfect equal distribution and the red is the actual data.http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/b/bd/Lorenz-curve1.png
Bilateral Graph
This is a graph of corporate net lending. It is bilateral because is shows both positive and negative values (in percents) of the gross domestic product. Needless to say, this graph is labled unusual flows and is in the negative more often (meaning serious debt).http://www.pastpeak.com/clips/Debt1.gif
Nominal Area Choropleth Map

Univariate choroplath map
This map is a normal choroplath map with one variable. It is showing, again, the outcome of the presidential election in terms of the populations of republican and democratic voters of America per county. There is no relationship in this map, for example, it would be bivariate if it were comparing this information with gender or age.
Bivariate choropleth map
This map is a Bivariate choroplath map and pie chart of the land use, life expectancy, and GNP per capita in Afica 1989. It is simply bivariate because there are two variables, land use and life expetancy.http://www.geocities.com/stevejford/Africa_Choropleth.jpg
Range graded proportional circle map
This range graded map is different from other proportional circle maps because it is range graded, which means the circles have a limit and specifications for their size. This is showing what states have the most mexican population. There are five different sizes the circles can be. The largest is 5 million. The smallest is 3,000. This is not to say the populations are exactly so. It is only a guide to be able to compare states.
Continuously variable proportional circle map
This map shows the circles in proportions to how important they are. Obviously, the larger the circle, the more important the industries as a whole are, in that area. The different colors are different industries, for example, iron, steel, mechanical, chemical, etc.
DOQQ
This is a Digital Orthoimagery Quarter Quadrangles Map with a 1 meter ground resolution. It is an aerial map used for accuracy for mapping purposes and scaling purposes.
DEM
This Digital Elevation Map is showing a crater lake in Oregon. It is photoshopped to make sure you know there is water, but it is just a 3D image of the ground as it would be seen from a satelite or plane.
DRG Map
This DRG map is a USGS topographical map, reproduced and put onto a computer. It has many uses, for example, this could be a map for someone unfamiliar with the colorado area and wanting to explore. The map is of Colorado and includes many tourist attractions (the rivers, roads, and business locations).
Isopleth
These three maps are simplifying the surface elevations or amount of pressure/precipitation of a certain area. They are intervaled and the points compare to each other to determine the values.
Isopachs
This is an asopach map of the ashfall from Cerro Negro. They are measured in centimeters and the 10 cm marker in the middle is closest to the crater.
Isohyets
This map is showing the limatic zones and isohyets of the average annual rainfall in new South Wales for stations with more than 20 years of records. It is measured in millimeters.
Isotach
This map is showing the observations by meterologists of the environment in a time where tornado outbreaks were prominent. The purple represents the highest speed.
Isobars
This map shows isobars over the Northeastern part of the united states. It is showing the pressure differences throughout the region and the high and low (H and L) pressures.
