Bubble Chart

Bubble charts extend the traditional scatter plot by adding a third dimension through the size of each data point (bubble). This visualization technique is powerful for displaying relationships between three quantitative variables simultaneously. Often, a fourth dimension is added through color coding. Bubble charts are popular in economics, business intelligence, and scientific research for comparing entities across multiple metrics.
