A continuously variable proportional circle map uses circles to show the proportion of frequencies of quantities. The size of the circle depicts that. The circle size is based on actual data, not a range or average. In this example, each circle is divided up in the form of a pie chart.

This infrared aerial photo shows a stadium and its surrounding environment. Infrared aerial photos show green in nature as red from a bird’s eye view. For example, grass and treetops would show up as red whereas the turf in this picture shows up black due to the fact it is made of inorganic material.

Statistical maps can show the average distance from one place to another as shown in this example. This map has mean travel times to work according to the National Data Book in 2006. Colors are used because states that are darker represent longer travel times.
