The star plot is a mapping tool used in order to compare multiple variables of data simultaneously. Usually star plots contain multiple stars, so that the wide range of data can be compared across a number of different test subjects. The star plot is made up of a number of radii, which all resemble a different variable. The length of the radii represents the amount of proportional data that the unit has, relative to all of the other test subjects. Lines are drawn to connect all of the data points around the star, which is what gives each unit its star-shaped appearance. http://www.math.yorku.ca/SCS/icons/sugi16/staraut2.gif
