What is a scatter plot?

A scatter plot is a set of dots plotted on a plane coordinate system representing two variables.

A scatter plot is usually the first choice for data exploration. Simple one-sized data marks give a clear view of every observation’s positioning. A scatter plot is often used to find correlations between two numerical variables and identify patterns. Clusters, as well as outliers, are also easy to spot using scatter plots.

A scatter plot is a chart with one of the best data/space ratios.

A scatter plot is also known for its versatility. It gives a lot of inspiration to infographic designers and data visualization specialists. It can be turned into almost any chart: heatmap, dot plot, icon chart, tilemap, or some hybrid chart.
