Daisy Charts may often look the same, but there are several different sub-types, which should be used in different circumstances :-

• Standard Daisy Chart - Drawn on two or more fields in a database.

• Date/Time Daisy Chart - Drawn on a Day of the Week and Hour of the Day basis.

  Always draw this type of Daisy Chart, when the database has Date and Time fields.

• Circular Histogram - A modern interpretation of the classic Florence Nightingale circular histogram.

  Always draw a Circular Daisy Chart if your data is date/time based and you want to see how values vary over a period to a detailed level.

• Duplicate Daisy Chart - A Duplicate Chart showing all records in a database that have duplicate sets of fields.

• Keyword Daisy Chart - One of the fields is mapped as a Keyword.

• Screening Daisy Chart - A single field is mapped to check the values are as expected.

  Always use this type of Daisy Chart when you analyse a new database.

• Summary Daisy Chart - A Summary Chart showing a summary of a database.

• Active Go-Matrix Chart - An Active Go-Matrix Chart is mapped.

• Active Histograms - An Active Histogram is mapped using a single field.

• Active Pie Chart - An Active Pie Chart is mapped using a single field.
