1) Marimekko Chart, also known as Mosaic Chart, is a valuable data visualization tool that represents different categories of data through varying widths and heights of its segments. This chart is crucial for providing a comprehensive view of the data, showing both the size of each segment relative to the whole and across different categories simultaneously. As illustrated in the diagram, the duration of visitation correlates positively with the depth of color in the chart.

2) In the workplace, Marimekko Charts are instrumental in strategic planning and analysis, helping stakeholders quickly discern the distribution and impact of various segments within a market or organization. Their use promotes better understanding and decision-making by highlighting critical areas of interest and potential growth opportunities within complex data sets.
