What chart is best for timelines?
A Gantt chart is a fantastic organizational tool and most commonly used for project management. It will feature variously sized bars spread across a timeline, each bar representing the start date, duration and end date of an activity.
What is timeline visualization?
A timeline is a chart that depicts how a set of resources are used over time. If you're managing a software project and want to illustrate who is doing what and when, or if you're organizing a conference and need to schedule meeting rooms, a timeline is often a reasonable visualization choice.
