If you choose more than three items, only the first three will be plotted. There are a total of 69 items available and you can use the search tool at the bottom of the screen to narrow down the list. When the graph is returned, you will be able to select the data on the graph that you want and see it geographically on a US map, or presented in a row-labeled plot . Goal The goal of the project is to encourage proper use of statistical graphics and visualization techniques when presenting data on the World Wide Web. Many government agencies and other data providers are literally scrambling to get their data on the Web.
Graphics are certain to play a key role in presenting data.
The same principles of statistical graphics that apply to static graphics also apply to these dynamic graphics, and it is well worth the additional effort to research the methods and tools available when representing data with graphics on the World Wide Web.
