Show Discrete events over Time Visual

use a line chart visual, minus the line. Use Small multiples for your sections.
change the line color to transparent
Thanks, got it. I guess my only issue now is what to use for "value." Ideally I'd be able to visualize this as a scatter plot but it does not work if I'm using Date as the x axis for categorical data.
Value will have to be a calculation that adds the Y axis offset as needed. Or use Small Multiples as you already do.
