The polar scatter plot is a type of chart that displays data points in a circular layout, using angles and radii to represent two-dimensional data. This plot is particularly useful for visualizing data that has a natural cyclical pattern or for representing directional data.
Components:
- Angles (Theta): Each data point is placed at a certain angle around the circle, typically measured in degrees.
- Radii (Rho): The distance of each data point from the center of the circle (the origin) represents the magnitude or value of the variable. The farther from the center, the higher the value.
- Data Points: These are the individual observations plotted on the polar scatter plot. Each point's position is determined by its angle and radius.
Basic Features:
- Visual Clarity: The visual can be clearly visible and the data are easily identifiable.
- Size: The chart is resizable and dynamic in nature according to the size.
- Dynamic Data Handling: Capable of managing large datasets with ease, ensuring smooth performance and quick rendering.
- Colors: The colors of the dots in the chart can be customizable from the visual settings under the visualization pane.
Premium Features:
- Logo Removal: The premium version supports the removal of the logo.
- Dropdown: Dropdown feature that helps the user select particular data by simply choosing the option from the dropdown. Ensure more than one data point is added.
- Toggle Chart: The toggle chart (Dropdown) allows switching between the polar area plot chart, polar scatter plot chart, and the polar line plot chart.
- Top n Selection: Based on the “radius,” the top radii can be shown by selecting/typing through the dropdown.
- +Basic Features
Use Cases:
- Meteorology: To represent wind directions and speeds. The direction can be plotted as the angle and the speed as the radial distance.
- Astronomy: To plot positions of stars, planets, or other celestial objects in a circular sky map.
- Engineering: To visualize data in fields such as robotics, where directional data is important.
- Navigation: For plotting course directions and distances in marine or aerial navigation.
- Signal Processing: For plotting the phase and magnitude of signals.
In Short:
A polar scatter plot is a graphical representation where data points are plotted on a circular grid using polar coordinates. Each point is defined by an angle (θ) and a distance (r) from the center. This type of plot is useful for visualizing data that have a natural circular structure, such as wind directions and speeds, celestial coordinates, or cyclic phenomena. The angle represents the direction, and the radial distance represents the magnitude of the data point.
