In the end I coded it so I work out how many points I can fit per pixel hen show the average value, then as you zoom in I re calculate. Now I have to optimise the code as each frame takes 240ms to calculate/draw.

Color code the temps. Plot each day as a line vertically(60*24px tall), and plot all days horizontally(365*10px long). Scale by 0.5, and allow zoom. Bam.

That still needs a 3650x1440 monitor, we have to support down to iPad :/

Plus there are 8 different data types (with varying y axis ranges) and the user can add as many devices as they have. I managed to explain that for a 10 year graph tho 5 devices would be the max as that is still like 500mb of data.

Sounds like they are afraid of losing information by using averages. In finance, this data visualization problem is solved with candlestick charts that show open-high-low-close (OHLC) so you still have a sense of outliers. Start with week for each candle and allow for zoom to minutes and they should get what they need

@trogus great solution I barely remembered that this was solved and couldn't remember where I had seen it before. You just saved me hours of agony trying to remember 😂
