# Customizable daily and hourly maps

Clima allows the user to visualize daily charts and heatmaps of all the variables listed in '[Apparent sun path for the location](https://cbe-berkeley.gitbook.io/clima/documentation/tabs-explained/sun-and-cloud/apparent-sunpath-for-the-location)'.

The chart above shows the [scatter plot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatter_plot) of all hourly data on all days of the month and the typical monthly trend.

[Heat maps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_map) allow the intensity of values to be perceived through color palettes. These graphs are very helpful in seeing how magnitudes vary throughout the year.
