Range Graded Proportional Circle Map

Range Graded Proportional Circle Map - data is divided into groups using classification procedures common to choropleth mapping. The design goal is for symbol size discrimination, rather than magnitude estimation. The cartographer chooses symbol sizes for adjacent classes so that the map reader can easily distinguish between circle sizes, and therefore, categories.
