[[Graphs, Charts, and Diagrams]] are a broad topic. Here's a couple of ways I could think to slice those up. ![[Pasted image 20250409115715.png]] # Data Presentation Diagrams that represent data and trends in data. - [[Scatter Chart]]s - [[Bar Chart]]s - [[Line Plot]]s - ...etc # Classification Diagrams that simply try to state what things are. - [[Venn Diagram]]s This feels like an under-represented category. Perhaps I'm just missing obvious things. # Processes Diagrams that explain how things flow to produce some sort of results. This would encompass several things: - [[Flow Charts]] - [[BPMN]] - [[Process Specification]]s - [[IDEF0|Function Diagrams]] - [[Activity Diagrams]] - [[Sequence Diagrams]] - [[Data Flow Diagram]]s # Structure Diagrams that show compositional [[Hierarchy]]. - [[Block Definition Diagram]] - [[Entity-Relationship Diagrams]] - The hierarchical nature of [[IDEF]] models (and [[C4 Model]]s and similar) could arguably put them here, too. # Relationship The most general type. A superset of Process, Classification, and Structure diagrams. The relationships (i.e. [[Arrows on Diagrams]]) would need to be explained in order to hold meaning. - [[Archimate]] diagrams - [[C4 Model|C4 Diagrams]] - General [[Graph]]s **** # More ## Source - [[Myself]] ## Related - [[Diagram Types (index)]]
