Scatter Plot

Scatter plots are used to analyze patterns in bivariate data. Data is plotted on the horizontal and vertical axis in an attempt to show how much one variable is related to another. They are the best visualizations that give users a sense of trends, correlations, and outliers from the data.

Best Situations to Use a Scatter Plot chart:

To find the Relation between different variables

To find the potential root cause of a problem

Variations of this chart:

Add-up Filters: Filters like combo boxes can be added to the scatter plot chart to filter data based on a condition.

Differentiate by Type: Data plotted on the charts may contain different categories. These categories can be identified by assigning different shapes.
