The above example is a map called a histogram and this one shows data that has been taken on different patients and their levels of DVR, a certain response to a biological technique. Histograms are really meaningful because they provide two ways to look at data, helping to give a better understanding of any anomalies within the data, while at the same time not having to look at all of the individual facts. Above, the data shows that the normal level of DVR is 5 and then there are various combinations of components to achieve this level. This map is able to help the reader by showing the average, or mean, which is the boxed area, but also gives the full range by presenting some of the outliers, through the extended lines. This is great for this project because it gives the opportunity to see the average, or the general pattern of the data, while still showing any possible, more "interesting" results.
