Abstract

A method for preprocessing data records for rendering in a diagram having first, second and third coordinates, wherein values of the first coordinate of the diagram, and/or values of the second coordinate of the diagram are discretized in bins. The method includes assigning to each bin of the first coordinate or to each bin of the second coordinate, data records having a value of the first coordinate or values of the first coordinate and the second coordinate, checking a number of data records that is assigned to each bin; when only one data record is assigned to a bin, instructing rendering the diagram using a third coordinate value of the data record, and when multiple data records are assigned to a bin, instructing rendering the diagram using selected third coordinate values, determined according to a predetermined criterion in which at least one value is chosen and/or aggregated.
