Symbolize by Chart (Business Analyst)

Resumen

Thematically maps a feature class based on a numeric field and displays it as a symbolized chart

Uso

• Charts can be effective for comparing several values at once. For example, you could display ZIP Codes as a pie chart, with each wedge representing population by race.

• Compares only a few areas (20 or 30 at most).

• Use five or less categories on your chart.

• Make sure the values between points vary enough to show differences.
