The post was only meant as an example (thanks again to David) depicting how to produce this kind of plot in R, nothing more. <BR/>If you think to have a dataset better suited for this kind of visualization, fell free to post it here.Paolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01969817827028660433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556813435224291579.post-10486769531011645532009-03-04T12:59:00.000+00:002009-03-04T12:59:00.000+00:00Hi,That's a really nice example.I have to say thou...Hi,<BR/><BR/>That's a really nice example.<BR/><BR/>I have to say though, that I found radial plots in most cases a bit confusing. Isn't it better to show this data using for example a dotchart? I like the radial plots if there is some angular meaning behind the variables like for wind strength for example. For data like these I guess the order (hence direction) is not relevant. On a dotchart you could plot them ordered alphabetically or by the variable value, wouldn't be more readable? What do you think?<BR/><BR/>~michałMichałhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06989188062950071994noreply@blogger.com
