Create statistical classification methods for buckets/gradients #1014

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
It would be great to be able to create statistical classification methods for 
either buckets or gradients.  Currently, if you want to classify your data you 
need define classes using buckets or a separate query in the javascript API 
after running the data in other software to define the classes. And if you 
wanted to use a gradient to do this, you would need to define each color value 
in buckets.  I recommend the following classification methods be integrated 
into buckets and gradients:

Equal Interval, Quantiles, Standard Deviations, Natural Breaks 

CDC has a great article on this "How should one choose a data classification 
method?" http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/maps/faqs.htm#13

This would expand the ease and uses FT/Maps in scientific applications.

Thanks,

Jack R.
