Continuously Variable Proportional Circles

Continuously Variable Proportional Circles Maps are a type of proportional circles map that use circles to create point data. This map, for instance, not only shows the size of each locations industry size in relationship to other locations, but breaks down each area's industries into their exact industry percentages. This could be one way to determine the economic success or failure of an area, though not the only factor involved in most cases. This map is also planimetric, statistical, and a type of dot distribution map.
