Choose right chart type for your needs

If you are struggling with your scientific data and confused about charts, which will be better according to your needs, or how to group the charts together to make a better analytical decision, then live chart chooser from Juice Analytics can be useful for you. Based on requirement you can select appropriate filters or their combinations, for example if you are interested in comparison as well as relationship check then you will end up with bubble chart and quartiles table. You can also make decisions about your chart using Chart Chooser diagram (above image, you can download PDF version). Alternatively you can use “A Periodic Table of Visualization Method“, which is not limited to charts only, but includes various data , information and concept visualization approaches (download the PDF version of Periodic table).
