Editor's Notes
So what is visual analytics? THAT’s visual analytics.
Let’s see another example. Here’s some data. The are 4 sets of data here, each with 11 sets of x-y coordinates. For the purposes of this exercise, let’s assume the x data represents, in millions, the net sales of a single retail store over the course of a month. Let’s say the y data represents, in millions, the total profit from that store. So we’re looking here at a set of points that represent profit by sales, where each point is a single store. The four data sets represent regions, say, West, Central, South and East. Let’s say you’re a manager responsible for maximizing profit at these stores. What’s your move?
