Sankey Diagram

A Sankey Diagram is used to visualize the flow and relationships between entities. This type of visualization highlights the magnitude of flows between sources and destinations, making it easy to identify major contributions and inefficiencies.

A Sankey Diagram is used to visualize the flow and relationships between entities. This type of visualization highlights the magnitude of flows between sources and destinations, making it easy to identify major contributions and inefficiencies.

Cómo interpretar la visualización:

The Sankey Diagram displays entities as nodes, with flows (lines) connecting them. The width of each flow represents the quantity or value of the connection between the entities. The diagram can be read by following the flows from source nodes to destination nodes.

Estructura de datos:

  • Measures: 1 (flow value)

  • Dimensions: Multiple (entities)

Buenas prácticas / Limitaciones:

  • Clarity: Avoid using too many nodes to prevent overcrowding.

  • Color Coding: Use distinct colors to differentiate between flow types.

  • Context: Provide additional context or labels to explain significant flows.

Ejemplos de cuándo utilizarlo:

  • Visualizing energy consumption and losses.

  • Analyzing financial transfers between accounts.

  • Understanding user behavior flows on a website.
