• Strategy


Visualize data as events arranged in chronological order along a bar, using any time scale. Most timelines use a linear scale, with a specific unit of distance equal to a specific amount of time. Each event can be a single point in time or a date range. Timelines allow users to see the duration of events, the time that elapses between events, and the overlap between events.
