# Radar chart

A radar chart is a graphical representation used to compare multiple categories across several variables. Unlike traditional charts with lines, radar charts use a series of connected points to form a polygon, creating a visual representation of the data. This type of chart is particularly useful for comparing multiple categories across multiple variables, highlighting relationships between different data points. Radar charts are often used in business and marketing to compare the performance of different products or services across various metrics, such as sales, customer satisfaction, and market share. You can drill down into the data by double-clicking on any data point within the chart. Radar charts are implemented using Apache Echarts and do not support exporting to PDF.
