Examples include a basketball players shots made, rebounds, assists, etc., or the batting or pitching stats of a baseball player. This creates a centralized visualization of the strengths and weaknesses of a player, and if overlapped with the statistics of other players or league averages, can display where a player excels and where they could improve.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These insights into player strengths and weakness could prove crucial to player development as it allows coaches and trainers to adjust a player's training regiment to help improve on their weaknesses. The results of the radar chart can also be useful in situational play. If a batter is shown to hit poorly against left-handed pitching, then his team knows to limit his plate appearances against left-handed pitchers, while the opposing team may try to force a situation where the batter is forced to hit against the pitcher.</p><figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="The performance metrics of 3 different types of vehicle" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png/300px-3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png" decoding="async" width="300" height="142" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png/450px-3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png/600px-3VehiclePerformanceMetrics.png 2x" data-file-width="1920" data-file-height="911" /></a><figcaption>A radar chart showing the differences in performance metrics of a sedan, sports car, and pickup truck.</figcaption></figure> <p>Another application of radar charts is the control of <a href="/wiki/Quality_management" title="Quality management">quality improvement</a> to display the <a href="/wiki/Performance_metric" class="mw-redirect" title="Performance metric">performance metrics</a> various objects including computer programs,<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> computers, phones, vehicles, and more. Computer programmer often use analytics to test the performance of their programs versus others. An example of this where radar charts may be useful is the performance analysis of various sorting algorithms. A programmer could gather up several different sorting algorithms such as selection, bubble, and quick, then analyze the performance of these algorithms by measuring their speed, memory usage, and power usage, then graph these on a radar chart to see how each sort performs under various sizes of data. Another performance application is measuring the performance of similar cars against each other. A consumer could look at variables such as the cars’ top speed, miles per gallon, horsepower, and torque. Then after using a radar chart to visualize the data, they could decide on what car is best for them based on the results. </p> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png/300px-Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png" decoding="async" width="300" height="276" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png/450px-Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/63/Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png/600px-Wiki_Radar_Chart_Example.png 2x" data-file-width="868" data-file-height="798" /></a><figcaption>A radar chart showing the similarity of two communities that consist of connected genomic windows; see <a href="/wiki/Genome_architecture_mapping" title="Genome architecture mapping">genome architecture mapping</a>.</figcaption></figure> <p>Radar charts can be used in life sciences to display the strengths and weakness of drugs and other medications.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Using the example of two anti-depressants, a researcher can rank variables such as efficacy, side effects, cost, etc. on a scale of one to ten.

Meanwhile, the other anti-depressant provides stronger relief and holds up better over time but is more expensive. Another life science application is in patient analysis. Radar charts can be used to graph the variables of life affecting a person's wellness, and then be analyzed to help them. A more specific example is in the case of athletes, whose various wellness habits such as sleep, diet, and stress are monitored to make sure they stay in peak physical condition.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> If any areas would be shown dipping, doctors and trainers could step in to assist the athlete and improve their wellness. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Limitations">Limitations</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Radar_chart&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Limitations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Radar charts are primarily suited for strikingly showing <i><a href="/wiki/Outlier" title="Outlier">outliers</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Commonality" class="mw-redirect" title="Commonality">commonality</a></i>, or when one chart is greater in every variable than another, and primarily used for <a href="/wiki/Ordinal_scale" class="mw-redirect" title="Ordinal scale">ordinal measurements</a> – where each variable corresponds to "better" in some respect, and all variables on the same scale. </p><p>Conversely, radar charts have been criticized as poorly suited for making trade-off decisions – when one chart is greater than another on some variables, but less on others.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Further, it is hard to visually compare lengths of different spokes, because radial distances are hard to judge, though concentric circles help as grid lines.
