In Cognos Analytics 11.2.0 we're introducing two new visualizations to enhance your dashboards (and hopefully see something you didn't see before in your data).
Radar Chart
Dashboard authors can now present data using a radar chart (sometimes called a spider chart) which compares a quantitative variable across one or more series. Typically, the most effective use of the radar chart would compare series that are relatively scaled. For instance, in the below American Time Use Survey example, we can see the "weekly hours caring for children" measure across various education levels and how that number has evolved over time.
