A range graded proportional circle map is a proportional circle map that depicts the circles in relation to ranges of data. The data has been divided into groups, with each group depicted by a specific symbol size. The information is classified as equal quantiles, breaks, natural breaks, and minimum variance. Point data is mapped with a circle, and there are a finite or set number of sizes used for the circles. In the example above, a range graded proportional circle map is shown on the left, and it displays data for motor vehicle deaths through the use of increasing circle sizes.
