J.1. About this Section
This section describes the use of the InstantAtlas Bubble Plot template.
This template is highly flexible and is therefore deserving of a dedicated
section in this user guide. It is assumed that you have already read section
‘B. The InstantAtlas Desktop Publisher’, section ‘C. The InstantAtlas
Designer’ and section ‘E. The InstantAtlas Excel Data Manager’.
When publishing using this template the ‘Choose Settings For Your
Dynamic Report’ of the Publisher offers different configuration options.
You should choose the one that suits the style of presentation you wish to
create.
Bubble – Advanced: for plotting up to four indicators simultaneously
where the end-user can change each indicator independently.
Bubble – Simple: for plotting up to four indicators simultaneously where
the end-user can only change a single indicator and those shown in the
other dimensions are pre-defined by the administrator.
Scatter Plot: for plotting two indicators simultaneously (standard bi-variate
scatter plot).
Funnel Plot: for plotting two indicators simultaneously with superimposed
confidence limits around a regional/national comparator.
These are described in more detail in the follow sections.
The Bubble Plot Family within the HTML templates is comprised of
two templates: the Scatter Plot template and the Advanced Bubble
Plot template. The table below shows equivalent functionality
