# microsoft/InteractiveDataDisplay.WPF

Interactive Data Display for WPF is a set of controls for adding interactive visualization of dynamic data to your application. It allows to create line graphs, bubble charts, heat maps and other complex 2D plots which are very common in scientific software. Interactive Data Display for WPF integrates well with Bing Maps control to show data on a geographic map in latitude/longitude coordinates. The controls can also be operated programmatically.

## What it is
A set of WPF controls for adding interactive visualization of dynamic data to .NET applications, supporting line graphs, bubble charts, heat maps, bar charts, and other complex 2D plots common in scientific software. It integrates with the Bing Maps control to display data on geographic maps in latitude/longitude coordinates and can also be operated programmatically.

## Use cases
- plot line graphs from C# data in a WPF application
- render heat maps and bubble charts for scientific data
- visualize dynamic data on a geographic map with latitude/longitude coordinates
- create interactive 2D plots in XAML with programmatic control
- build scientific software dashboards with charting controls

## When to choose
- you are building a WPF desktop application in C# that needs interactive charts
- you need scientific-style 2D plots like line graphs, heat maps, or bar charts in .NET
- you want to overlay data plots on a Bing Maps geographic view
- you prefer declarative XAML chart definitions with programmatic Plot() calls

## When to avoid
- you are targeting web, mobile, or non-Windows platforms
- you need 3D visualization or advanced statistical plotting beyond 2D charts
- your project uses .NET MAUI, Avalonia, or other non-WPF UI frameworks
- you need a charting library with active ongoing development and recent feature updates
