What is an Area Chart?

An area chart is a graph that combines a line chart and a bar chart to show changes in quantities over time. It’s similar to a line graph in that data points are plotted and connected by line segments. However, the area below the line is colored in or shaded. Then, other values are plotted below the lines and shaded in a different color, resulting in a chart with layers.
