DLG Map

A Digital Line Graph is a digital vector data representing cartographic information depicting a wide varity of geographic features. This DLG is a representation of the San Francisco creek. The data here is stored as lines and points in order to depict the creek itself.

Star Plot

A star plot is a graphical methodof displaying mulitivariate data in the form of a two dimensional chart. This is an example of a star plot from NASA within the center there are some of the most disierable disign results. This is a star plot of MER IDD which is represented by the red line within the center.

Correlation Matrix

A correlation matrix is a matrix that is capable of making connections between all pairs of data sets. This specific correlation matrix shows the correlation between the cluster moments for electrons and pions. The red line down the center reading 100's shows the greatest correlation.

Similarity Matrix

A similarity matrix expresses the similarity between two data points. This similarity matrix is for a collection of ten bacterial strains. These strains have been ordered so that we are able to see which ones most clearly resemble one another in their overall phenotype. We can see that strains 6 and 3 match each others phenotype 100 percent. And the lowest percentage of resemblance can be seen between 3 and 5, 3 and 9, as well as 3 and10. http://www.jbaas.com/HTML/Previous%20Issues/Volume%20No.%202%20No.%202/Headings/H-7.html

Stem and Leaf Plot

A stem and leaf plot is another graphic or numerical displayof the distribution of a variable. The information is tabulated so that the last digit is the leaf and the rest of the numbers in front are the stem. This example of a stem and leaf plot shows the ages of people at a family reunion. This plot shows that the oldest person at the reunion was 81, and the youngest was just one year old.

Box Plot


A box plot can also be known as a box and whisker plot or diagram. It is an easy way to graphically depict groups of numerical data through their 5 number summaries. In this box plot we can see the upper quartile reads about 125, the median reads about 78, and the lower quartile reads about 30. These numbers are the annual snow depth of mathsville ski resort.

Histogram


A histogram is a diagram consisting of individual bars who's area is proportional to the frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.


This is a graph of a strike histogram. The strike histogram show the range and variability of slope strike within a grid model. This corresponds to the directions of ridges and valley's
