Custom Parallel Coordinate

Posted on August 19, 2016 by kabir
I saw this cool parallel coordinate chart in the Guardian on the heptathlon in the Rio Olympics. Displaying multi-variate data is tricky. A traditional parallel coordinate chart is some times difficult to read with the high number of overlapping lines. This new approach, which I have re--created with 2017 Madden ratings data in Tableau, allows you to see every point on parallel axes and then view the relative position of each point for a selected player. The correlation between variables is not as immediately apparent but it is easier to see a specific data point across variables.
