Advance Charts

1. Histogram Chart: Histograms are one way to display the distribution of values in a field. We can create a histogram by binning the values of a measure and then creating a view based on the measure and its binned values.
2. Water Fall Chart: These charts are mainly used to identify how each and every value is contributing the total value. It is the great way to compare sequential value contribution on the total cumulative. These can be used to find Inventory and performance analysis.
3. Bump Chart: These are used to compare one dimension based on the other dimension. Bump charts are usually reports the boat race, each boat tries to move front and bump the other boats.
4. Funnel Chart: The text mark type is useful when you want to display the numbers associated with one or more dimension members. This type of view is often called a text table, a cross-tab, or a Pivot Table
5. Advanced Geo Mapping: Plotting Maps based on detailed Latitude, Longitudes, Plot Order, Polygon Maps.
