Population Pyramid. A population pyramid displays the distribution of members of a population by age and gender. In the above video, you'll see how the population of the United States changed between 1950 and 2012. Watch for the large number of "baby boomers", born shortly after World War II, to age as the years progress. Note also the growth in the number of individuals in the 85+ age category and the flattening of the distribution at younger ages.
Pareto Chart. This video shows a Pareto chart of COVID-19 positive cases and deaths by state between 3/16/20 and 8/17/20. Bars are drawn for the 20 states with the most confirmed cases, sorting the states from greatest number of cases to least. Bars are colored using a heat map that indicates the number of deaths in the state as of the date indicated.
Wind Rose. A wind rose is a special graphic that shows the distribution of wind speed and direction at a selected geographical location. The Wind Rose Statlet shows how that distribution changes over time, based on monthly averages over a period of years. In the video above, watch how the wind changes throughout the day at a wind station in Parkdale, Oregon. At midnight, the predominant wind is light and from the south. By noon, the predominant direction is from the west and the wind tends to be stronger.
Dynamic Heat Map by State. This heat map shows the evolution of COVID-19 cases in the United States between 3-16-20 and 8-12-20. The color of each state signifies the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in each state divided by the state's population.
Dynamic Heat Map by Country. This heat map shows the evolution of COVID-19 cases around the world between 3-15-20 and 8-13-20. The color of each country signifies the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in each country divided by the country's population.
Dynamic Bubble Chart. Dynamic bubble charts are a good method for displaying changes in multiple variables over time. The video above shows data from the World Bank for 188 countries between 1961 and 2009. The vertical axis displays life expectancy. The horizontal axis displays the fertility rate (average number of children per woman). The size of the bubbles is proportional to the percentage of people living in rural areas. The color of each bubble shows infant mortality. In 1990, there were 2 well defined groups of countries, one with longer life expectancies than the other, fewer children, and lower infant mortality. Watch how the entire world has moved toward the upper left, gradually diminishing the difference between the 2 groups.
Demographic Map (Locations). The above video shows how the size of the major cities in the United States has changed between 1790 and 2010. Watch the western expansion of the country over the years.
