Cartesian Coordinate System Chart


Cartesian coordinate system chart now supports two types of charts:

  • Boxplot Chart: shows a statistical chart of a set of data dispersion information. It is mainly used to show the data distribution, and also allows comparison of multiple data distribution groups. For example, in the energy storage scenario, the boxplot chart can show the maximum, minimum, median, maximum 1/4 value, and minimum 1/4 value of all the battery clusters of an energy storage system over a period of time.
  • Scatter Chart: helps to show extreme data points by supporting the boxplot chart.
