Star Plot

Star Plots illustrate multiple variables for location or other observation shown. The resulting lines around each primary point then allow for comparison against the star plots for other locations or observations.

A stem and leaf plot shows the shape and distribution of data. This image plots students grades in a class.

Box Plot

A Box Plot, or box and whisker

Diagram, provides a simple

Graphical summary of a set of

Data.

It shows a measure of central

Location (the median), the average,

And measures of dispersion.

Box Plots are especially useful

When comparing two or more sets of 

Histogram

A histogram is a graphical display of tabulated frequencies, shown as bars. It shows what proportion of cases fall into each of several categories.

Parallel Coordinate Graph

Multivariate relations are obtained through the use of Parallel Coordinate Graphs. Specific properties of the relationship correspond to the geometrical properties of the graph.

Triangular Plot

A Triangular Plot is a graph of 3 variables. It is most often used in geologic studies to show the relative compositions of soils and rocks, but it can be more generally applied to any system of three variables.

The windrose chart is named for charts of wind speed and direction. Windrose charts are a type of histogram which are useful when the extreme values of the histogram's midpoint variable are related. Typical applications include histograms involving direction, clock time, or other cyclical values
