Summary

Temporal data representation can be used to communicate information with style and analysis. CARTO Builder offers a new way of aggregating geospatial data for both time and space, allowing users to animate their data based on specific date ranges or columns. This functionality is particularly useful for visualizing temporal trends, such as changes in business expansion or reactions to certain topics. The addition of a histogram chart provides an alternative to the traditional Torque scrub bar, enabling users to better understand the distribution of their data over time.
