Continuously Variable Proportional Circle Map




This is an example of Proportional circle map using Continuously Variable Proportional Circles. This map is actually the first time proportional circles were used in a map. This is the map Charles Joseph Minard created to show the proportion of different types of meat being sent to Paris Butcheries. In this style of proportional circle maps there is not a set number of circles, a circle is as big or little as the proportions call for.
