Column chart

A column chart displays the values ​​of different metrics as vertical bars.

Use a column chart to compare the values ​​of a certain data attribute. Case examples: compare the number of firms from different categories of food service; compare the number of restaurants with different seating capacity values.

An example of a column chart comparing the number of firms from different categories:

Column chart

Main features

  • Suitable for text attributes that display data categories (e.g. building purpose).

  • Suitable for numeric attributes (e.g. building area). To display data as columns, specify the number of ranges and their limits in the Number of ranges field when creating a widget or editing it. You can set up ranges of different sizes. The specified upper limit is not included in the range.

    If you need to use a continuous scale and automatically set equal ranges of values ​​(set a step size), use a histogram.

  • Instead of a column chart, you can use a bar chart: they differ only in the orientation of the axes.

Note

When working with the uploaded data, make sure that at least one attribute is specified in it to build a graph on the widget.

Parameters

  • Widget name: name of a new widget.

  • Layer: data layer that is used to build a graph on the widget.

  • Attribute: data attribute that is used to build a graph on the widget.

  • Different graph settings are available, depending on the type of data attribute (text or numeric).

    • For text attributes:

      • Color: selecting a color scale (a set of prepared color samples) according to which elements on the graph are colored.
      • Number of values: number of attribute values that are displayed on the graph. The top 5 and top 10 values from the data sample are available.
      • Show other: shows the sum of the last value and the remaining values below this position at the last position in the top.
      • Values ​​in percentage: shows the percentage distribution of attribute values.
      • Show legend: shows the attribute values and the number of attribute data values.

    • For numeric attributes:

      • Color: selecting a color according to which elements on the graph are colored. You can select a color from the palette or specify it in HEX format.

      • Number of ranges: number of ranges with data that are displayed on the graph. The available number of ranges depends on the data, the maximum number is 10.

      • Statistics: data aggregation in the data sample.
        • Total objects in the asset: number of objects in the data sample, which are used to calculate the values.
    • For numeric attributes:
      • Show source: shows the data layer name and the attribute name that the graph is based on.
      • Show empty ranges: shows on the graph ranges of values without data.
      • Statistics: data aggregation in the data sample.
        • Total value: total attribute value in the data sample.
        • Mean value: average attribute value in the data sample.
        • Minimum value: minimum attribute value in the data sample.
