Displaying Data: Over Time
Time is an observed phenomenon, which we have used as a measure of how events are ordered from the past through to present and into the future.
Everything inevitably changes over time, but observing how things change and how often they change is what time is useful for. For example, by observing patterns from the past, people can predict and plan ahead for the future.
In this post in our ongoing series on Displaying data at VISU.AL , we look at the type of data visualisation used for showing data changing over time.
