Range graded proportional circle map

A range graded proportional circle map is a map that uses circles and a key to give certain types of geographic information such as population, industry, cattle, and so on. The thing that separate range grades from a continuously variable proportional map is that there is a set number of circle sizes that are used. The map above shows the gross domestic product in the world from 1996.
