Figure 10.40 Example of Contour Plot of Diamond Characteristics
The darker the density, the more data. In Figure 10.40, notice the following:
• Most people in the sample purchased diamonds with a carat weight of about 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0.
• Most people who purchased diamonds with a carat weight of 0.5 paid about $850-$2,000 dollars.
• Most people who purchased diamonds with a carat weight of 0.75 paid about $1,600-$2,700 dollars.
• Most people who purchased diamonds with a carat weight of 1.0 paid about $3,800-$4,800 dollars.
Examples of Creating Custom Maps
Once you have your custom map files, you can create custom maps in one of two ways:
• Set up your custom map files initially and save them in the predetermined location. JMP finds and uses
them in the future with any appropriate data.
• Point to specific predefined map files directly from your data. This step might be required each time you
want to specify custom maps.
Set Up Automatic Custom Maps
As an example of setting up automatic custom maps, say that you have downloaded ESRI shapefiles from
the Internet and you want to use them as your map files in JMP. The shapefiles are named Parishes.shp and
Parishes.dbf. These files contain coordinates and information about the parishes (or counties) of Louisiana.
