Only numbers - Showing Numbers in visuals Sometimes, just showing the data as text is the most effective way of conveying information. Single value chart When you just have one number, it’s best to just report it as-is. Plotting a single value graphically (such as with a bar or point) usually isn’t meaningful if there aren’t other values to compare it to. Single value with indicator An indicator compares the single value to a second number. This is often to compare a metric’s value between the current period and the previous period. Bullet chart Chart type comparing a single value to another number, often a benchmark rather than another data point. The single value is shown with a bar’s length, while comparison points are shown as shaded regions or a perpendicular line. Table Compares data points (rows) across multiple different attributes (columns). Usually sorted by an important or prominent attribute to improve utility.
