◆ Using record scatter plots
A scatter-plot helps to reveal trends between two numeric attributes, or more when adding attributes to change point size and color. Each data record becomes a point (dot) positioned by the values of the two desired numeric attributes. The point appears on a higher position on the left, or vertical, axis as the attribute gets larger. Likewise, a higher value of the attribute for the bottom, or horizontal, axis moves the record point further right.

Adjusting scatter plot visualizations
A scatter plot uses point location, color, and size to visualize each record based on up to four data features.
These options enrich visual analytics capabilities in a scatterplot, beyond its core 2-axes / 2-attributes visualization characteristics.
