Diversification maps as a tool for multidimensional data presentation

In addition to data analysis, equally important issue, is the appropriate presentation of the analysis results during the economic, social and demographic studies. Depending on the legibility of the used form, it may make it easier or more difficult to interpret and draw conclusions. Especially difficult is the presentation of multidimensional data, according to the limitations of traditional types of graphs. The paper presents a graphical presentation of the three-dimensional data in the form of the so-called "map of differentiation" that is suitably modified spatial graph. There were presented different types of maps, layers determination ways and examples of specific applications for cigarettes consumption and diversification of logistics in the Polish food processing data.
