How to select an appropriate graph

Irgendwie hat sich dieses PDF auf meinem Desktop eingefunden: Selecting the Best Graph Based on Data, Tasks, and User Roles (ein UPA Paper von 2007).

Enterprise software developers and product managers often have difficulty selecting appropriate graph types for users of business applications. Existing solutions for organizing graph types are not adequately focused on end users and their tasks. We have developed a design pattern that serves as a decision support tool for selecting appropriate graph visualizations based upon characteristics of the data, task, and end users.

Es kommt ein wenig trocken daher, ist aber tatsächlich gut zu lesen und ganz interessant.
