Tools & capabilities
MCP Server Chart tools 27
generate_area_chartGenerate a area chart to show data trends under continuous independent variables and observe the overall data trend, such as, displacement = velocity (average or instantaneous) × time: s = v × t. If the x-axis is time (t) and the y-axis is velocity (v) at each moment, an area chart allows you to observe the trend of velocity over time and infer the distance traveled by the area's size.generate_bar_chartGenerate a horizontal bar chart to show data for numerical comparisons among different categories, such as, comparing categorical data and for horizontal comparisons.generate_boxplot_chartGenerate a boxplot chart to show data for statistical summaries among different categories, such as, comparing the distribution of data points across categories.generate_column_chartGenerate a column chart, which are best for comparing categorical data, such as, when values are close, column charts are preferable because our eyes are better at judging height than other visual elements like area or angles.generate_district_mapGenerates regional distribution maps, which are usually used to show the administrative divisions and coverage of a dataset. It is not suitable for showing the distribution of specific locations, such as urban administrative divisions, GDP distribution maps of provinces and cities across the country, etc. This tool is limited to generating data maps within China.generate_dual_axes_chartGenerate a dual axes chart which is a combination chart that integrates two different chart types, typically combining a bar chart with a line chart to display both the trend and comparison of data, such as, the trend of sales and profit over time.generate_fishbone_diagramGenerate a fishbone diagram chart to uses a fish skeleton, like structure to display the causes or effects of a core problem, with the problem as the fish head and the causes/effects as the fish bones. It suits problems that can be split into multiple related factors.generate_flow_diagramGenerate a flow diagram chart to show the steps and decision points of a process or system, such as, scenarios requiring linear process presentation.generate_funnel_chartGenerate a funnel chart to visualize the progressive reduction of data as it passes through stages, such as, the conversion rates of users from visiting a website to completing a purchase.generate_histogram_chartGenerate a histogram chart to show the frequency of data points within a certain range. It can observe data distribution, such as, normal and skewed distributions, and identify data concentration areas and extreme points.generate_line_chartGenerate a line chart to show trends over time, such as, the ratio of Apple computer sales to Apple's profits changed from 2000 to 2016.generate_liquid_chartGenerate a liquid chart to visualize a single value as a percentage, such as, the current occupancy rate of a reservoir or the completion percentage of a project.- +15 more on the listing page
