heatmap

[Spax]

I’m working on a statistics project, and it’s hard to see a correlation between quantitative data when the data is very discreet (because multiple points overlap).

I request that the datapoints have some sort of color value that they more closely resemble if they are closer together.

Hello,

Yes, there certainly situations like the one you describe in which it is not clear how many data points are crowded into a small portion of the graph. And CODAP does not have built-in functionality to automatically remedy things.

However, I can think of three techniques to get around this limitation. They are explained in this CODAP document and in the enclosed screenshot.

Thank you for the suggestion. I’ll log it as a user feature request.

Bill

As a postscript, I note that CODAP’s map component does have a heat map feature under its ruler menu. See the enclosed screen capture.

Would something like that for the graph satisfy your needs?
