Packed bubbles
CDP Data Visualization enables you to create Packed Bubbles visuals.
Packed bubble charts compare the relative values in close physical proximity. We use two main series of data: the field on the Dimensions shelf names the bubble, and the field on the Measures shelf determines the relative area of the bubble.
Contrast this with the traditional approach, where bubbles represent three dimensions of data — one each for horizontal and vertical axes, and one for the area of bubble. This type of visualization is part of flexibility built into Cloudera's scatter charts.
The following steps demonstrate how to create a new packed bubbles visual representation on
dataset World Life Expectancy
[data source
samples.world_life_expectancy
]. For an overview of shelves that specify
this visual, see Shelves for packed bubble visuals.
