Revise: Common and Specialized Geographical Graph TypesA rose chart is a directional radial graph. Its axes follow compass directions, and its sectors represent observations associated with those directions. A wind rose can show how frequently wind comes from each direction.
For radial and rose charts, read the scale along the relevant spoke or direction; do not judge values from the apparent area of the whole shape.
