Visualization - Bar - Funnel

Funnel charts (also known as <span data-content="synonym"pyramid charts charts and wedding cakes) are variants of the bar chart. The charts often appear in the shape of a triangle to depict the hierarchy or step-by-step change in the data.

Example

The most common way to input data into a pyramid chart is through a table, where the first column represents the label and the second represents the value.

The following example is a brand funnel for a fast-food chain. The visualization tracks the change in each stage of the funnel.

The next example is a pyramid chart that is not necessarily shaped like a triangle. The visualization is a population pyramid of the United States in 2017.
