  GIS(mapping) Data

Any good examples of graphs done using lat/long?
Or is this really just X & Y  with overlays for other data.

I am a ham radio operator and via a packet radio on a parachute jumper I will be collecting the following with each packet:
lat/log
time (HMS)
heading(0-360)
speed
altitude
Hear rate
SpO2

Hi Michael,

In ChartDirector, the x and y axes can represent date/time, numbers or text labels. If they represent numbers, ChartDirector would not care what does the numbers mean. It can mean temperature, rainfall, revenue, latitude, longitude or any other things.

So in your case, you can just use a normal XY chart for your data, in which the x and y axes are numbers representing latitude and longitude. You can plot your data on this surface, using the data representation you want (eg. using scatter points, lines, vectors, ...).

Hope this can help.
