Radar Chart

A radar chart has a strong visual impact (it is also known as a spider web chart). The diagram below is a very simple example of a radar chart that has been used to show the number of risks that five different projects are exposed to.  Initially the data is placed in a table that is subsequently converted into a chart using proprietary software.  In a radar chart, a point close to the centre on any axis indicates a low value.  A point near the edge is a high value.
