When to use this template
A Sankey diagram reveals the magnitude of flows between distinct stages or categories, making it easy to trace paths and identify where values originate, converge, or diverge. It's ideal for understanding distribution, identifying bottlenecks, or visualizing the impact of different inputs on final outcomes.
- Data with distinct, sequential categorical stages.
- Quantitative values representing flow between two specific stages.
- Directed relationships where flow moves from a source to a target.
- Datasets where flow is conserved (inflow equals outflow).
- Relatively few distinct nodes (e.g., under 50) for clarity.
- Non-negative, aggregated flow values.
