Data Visualization Tools: Data Visualizer Bubble Chart

Data Visualizer is a World Bank tool which employs “bubble charts” to display data in four dimensions. In each chart, the size of the country circle represents a volume measure, such as population or GDP. The position of the bubbles is determined by the indicators selected for the horizontal and vertical axes. The time series used in Data Visualizer is a subset of 2009 World Development Indicators database. As of 4/20/2010, Data Visualizer contains 49 indicators for 209 countries and 18 aggregates from 1960-2007. Data includes social, economic, financial, information and technology, and environmental indicators.
