Accululated Line Graph (Lorenz Curve)
An Accumulated Line Graph or Lorenz Curve is a type of geovisualization that graphically represents cumulative distribution. It is frequently used in economics to show inequality in wealth or size. It is made by plotting the cumulative distribution of the variable against the cumulative frequency distribution of the individuals that possess the variable. This Accumulation plot is the Lorenz curve for Household Income and Expenditures in the years 2002-2003 for the Maldives, an island nation in the Indian Ocean.
