A scatter plot displays automobile origin, horsepower, and weight, with each point sized and colored by weight and tooltips revealing model names. The visualization uses the Vega-Lite API (`vl.markCircle`, `vl.x().fieldN`, `vl.y().fieldQ`) to construct a declarative spec, rendered as SVG via Vega-Lite and Vega. Data loads from a CSV of the Auto MPG dataset, and a custom config adjusts axis styling and font sizes. The example demonstrates programmatic chart building, programmatic width/height fitting, and tooltip integration via the `vega-tooltip` Handler.

AI-generated description

A visualization constructed using the vega-lite-api.

The data shown here comes from the UCI Machine Learning Repository: Auto MPG Data Set, via Gist: Scatter Plot with Menus.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example displays a scatter plot of auto-mpg data, encoding horsepower, weight, and origin. A circle mark uses quantitative axes for mpg and horsepower, color by origin, and size by weight. It features a tooltip for vehicle names. Built with the Vega-Lite API, it renders an SVG chart using vega-lite-api, vega, vega-lite, and d3.csv, with custom styling via a config object. The data comes from the UCI Machine Learning Repository Auto MPG dataset, loaded asynchronously and displayed with interactive tooltips.

Vega-Lite API

This example demonstrates a scatterplot of automotive data, mapping the country of origin along the x-axis, horsepower on the y-axis, with weight mapped to color and miles per gallon mapped to point size. Built with the Vega-Lite API, it constructs the visualization declaratively using `vl.markCircle()`, `vl.x()`, `vl.y()`, `vl.color()`, and `vl.size()`. The chart loads data from a CSV via D3’s `csv()` and uses the Vega-Lite runtime to render interactively with tooltips.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example uses the Vega-Lite API to render a scatter plot of the Auto MPG dataset from the UCI Machine Learning Repository. The plot maps vehicle weight to the x-axis and horsepower to the y-axis, with point size representing miles per gallon and color encoding weight. The visualization loads data via `d3.csv` and uses the `vl.markCircle` and `vl.encode` API to define the marks and channels. Vega-Lite and Vega are registered through the `vl.register` function, and interactivity is added with `vega-tooltip`.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example demonstrates a scatter plot of automobile data, showing the relationship between miles per gallon, horsepower, weight, and country of origin. It uses the Vega-Lite API to build the visualization declaratively, with the `vl.markCircle` and `vl.encode` methods specifying the visual encodings. The data is loaded from a CSV file via `d3.csv`, and the plot is rendered to an SVG canvas using the Vega rendering engine. The template also configures chart styling through a custom `config` object and enables interactive tooltips with the Vega Tooltip handler.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example demonstrates a scatter plot of auto MPG data, showing miles per gallon versus horsepower, with points colored by origin and sized by vehicle weight. The visualization is built using the Vega-Lite API, which is registered with Vega and Vega-Lite, and rendered as SVG. Data is loaded via d3.csv from a Gist hosting the UCI Machine Learning Repository’s Auto MPG dataset. Interactive tooltips display car names, with layout and axis styling configured through a custom config object.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example demonstrates a scatterplot visualization of automobile data, plotting weight against horsepower for various car models. Each point is colored by country of origin and sized by miles per gallon. The visualization is built using the Vega-Lite API, a programmatic interface to Vega-Lite, which leverages the Vega rendering engine. The code imports data from a CSV file, configures axis styles and tooltips, and uses the vega-tooltip library to display car names on hover.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example displays a scatter plot of automobile data from the Auto MPG dataset, showing miles per gallon versus horsepower with points colored by origin and sized by weight. The visualization is built using the Vega-Lite API in JavaScript, which programmatically constructs a Vega-Lite specification that is then rendered by Vega. Data is loaded asynchronously from a CSV URL using D3’s `csv` function, and the chart fills the viewport with a fit autosize scheme. Tooltips are enabled via the Vega Tooltip handler, and custom axis and label styles are applied through a shared configuration object.

Vega-Lite API Template

This example presents a scatter plot of auto-mpg data from the UCI Machine Learning Repository, visualizing vehicle attributes across model years. Each circle’s position encodes the year and horsepower, while its color differentiates the region of origin and its size reflects vehicle weight, with tooltips revealing model names. The visualization is built using the Vega-Lite API, where `vl.x()`, `vl.y()`, `vl.color()`, and `vl.size()` are chained to define encodings. Data is loaded asynchronously via `d3.csv`, and the rendered SVG view is configured with custom axis styling and a tooltip handler from `vega-tooltip`.
