Radar chart

<p>A radar chart is a <a href="/facts/List_of_graphical_methods/LFHnfBg0">graphical method</a> of displaying <a href="/facts/Multivariate_statistics/tDuNcWrL">multivariate</a> <a href="/facts/Data/AUBFN97o">data</a> in the form of a two-dimensional <a href="/facts/Chart/2xshvBX0">chart</a> of three or more quantitative variables represented on axes starting from the same point. The relative position and angle of the axes is typically uninformative, but various heuristics, such as algorithms that plot data as the maximal total area, can be applied to sort the variables (axes) into relative positions that reveal distinct correlations, trade-offs, and a multitude of other comparative measures.
</p><p>The radar chart is also known as web chart, spider chart, spider graph, spider web chart, star chart, star plot, cobweb chart, irregular polygon, polar chart, or Kiviat diagram. It is equivalent to a <a href="/facts/Parallel_coordinates/UWnYBuE6">parallel coordinates</a> plot, with the axes arranged radially.
