Another geovisualization tool is a triangular plot. These are helpful when looking at composition, typically in percentages, of something, mostly natural entities like soil or water. This triangular plot measures the chemical components in milliequivalent per litre of groundwater and thermal springs taken from the Cornia plain in Tuscany, Italy. The points represent samples taken and their content can be understood by, tracing back to each side of the triangle, finding the values on which axis they lie.
