Bilateral graph


A bilateral graph is one that has two sets of data graphed together. A climograph is a type of bilateral graph. Thus is where I got the image: http://www.globalhumanitarianassistance.org/New%20Images/Growth%20in%20bilateral%20humanitarian%20assistance%202005-2006%20copy.jpg

Pie chart


A pie chart is a graphical interpretation of data. It usually shows percentages of different options. This is where I found the image.

Pictograph


A pictograph is a type of graph or map that uses images to show the amount of data. For example if a car company wanted to show their sales they would show a bigger car for more sales and a smaller car for less sales. This is where I found the image.

Black and white photography


Black and white photography was the first type of photography available. It continued in popularity even after color photography was available. This is where I found the image.

Infrared photography


In infrared photography, the film or image sensor used is sensitive to infrared light. The part of the spectrum used is referred to as near-infrared to distinguish it from far-infrared, which is the domain of thermal imaging. I found the image here: http://www.fas.org/irp/imint/docs/rst/Sect10/originals/Fig10_7.gif

Cartographic animation


A cartographic animation is a map that is interactive or animated in some form to more thoroughly convey the information. This is an unanimated version. The directions are included on the image though.

Dot distribution map


A dot distribution map is a map that shows the frequency and location of certain things. For example there could be a dot distribution showing a dot on all the springs in Florida. This is where I found the image: http://www.botany.wisc.edu/Wislichens/dots/PELRUF.gif
