U3.06

Unequal spacing and gaps on time axes

Cards in this group · 5

  1. U3.06.1Uneven sampling plotted at even spacing distorts rates of change
  2. U3.06.2Gaps in a series should appear as gaps on the axis, not be skipped over
  3. U3.06.3Months have unequal lengths; equal-width monthly bars are not directly comparable
  4. U3.06.4Time zones and DST create duplicated or missing hours on the axis
  5. U3.06.5Temporal granularity decides which periodicities become visible
