In search of free online tool for creating radial graphs!
July 27, 2007 3:47 PM
Are there any free online tools for generating radar (aka radial, spider, star) graphs/charts?
The ideal tool would be easy to use dynamically and/or against large sets of data to generate multiple graphs.
I know that Google Documents, for example, provides a lot of graph/chart options, but not this specific sort. On the other end, I'm solid with perl and aware of e.g. radial.pm, but I'd love to find a slick, existing start-to-finish tool rather than having to roll some or all of it myself.
Any ideas?

For free stuff, maybe try GNUPlot? I haven't used it myself, but it's supposed to be pretty decent. It's got a polar plotting mode that looks like it might be useful for you. I think it's also somehow connected/connectable to Octave. It might be easier to prototype with a richer interface than just pure gnuplot.
