Scatterplot
- The type of mark used in the scatterplot is point mark.
- The channels are vertical and horizontal spatial positions. The vertical spatial position is mapped to Passsing TDs while the horizontal spatial position is mapped to Rushing TDs.
- Data type is categorical
After editing the scatterplot chart, the channels are:
- Vertical and horizontal spatial positions. The vertical spatial position is mapped to Passsing TDs while the horizontal spatial position is mapped to Rushing TDs
- The color hue that represents the "Conf" attribute. The 11 different colors represent 11 different conferences.
- The size channel represents the rank attribute. The size of the dot shows different ranks. The highest rank (1) has the biggest dot size while the least rank (121) has the smallest dot size.
- The dot size encodes the rank attribute where the players with the highest rank is represented in the size of the dots.
- Data type: Categorical
For extra credit, I added color legend to the scatterplot chart. The color legend shows the 11 conferences and the color that represents each conference.
