Various embodiments illustrated and described herein include at least one of systems, methods, and computer program product to manage data having multiple groups that vary over time. Some embodiments use a spider diagram, in conjunction with a timeline, to allow a user to visualize the data. Such embodiments can include controls that allow a user to indicate a time along the timeline for which data should be plotted on the spider diagram. Some embodiments provide controls that allow a user to select a time range for which characteristics of data should be plotted on the spider diagram such as minimum, maximum and average for each data group over the time interval. Some embodiments visually indicate values that fall within certain criteria, such as a marginal criteria or an unacceptable criteria. |

1. A method of coordinating display of multiple data groups, the method comprising:
generating, on a computer display device, a timelined data output diagram that includes a displayed metric value axis for each of the data groups, wherein each of the metric value axes originate at a common point and extend radially from the common point; generating, on the computer display device, a timeline object that provides a user input interface, wherein the timeline object presents a time interval display that is set based on the data groups; displaying, on the computer display device, a first marker within the timelined data output diagram, wherein the first marker comprises a first display symbol associated with a metric-specific limit value, and wherein the first marker is positioned on one or more of the metric value axes based on where along a metric value axis a data group value exceeds a metric-specific limit; displaying, on the computer display device, a second marker at a position within the time interval display that corresponds to a time value at which the data group value exceeded the metric-specific limit, wherein the second marker comprises a second display symbol that substantially matches the first display symbol; receiving a first user input at a selected start time position within the timeline object; in response to said first user input, displaying a start time indicator on said timeline object at the selected start time position; receiving a second user input at a selected stop time position within the timeline object; in response to said second user input, displaying a stop time indicator on said timeline object at the selected stop time position; and in response to the first and second user inputs:
changing the appearance of the timeline object between the start time indicator and the stop time indicator;identifying one or more marginal criteria values for each of the data groups and inserting markers corresponding to the marginal criterial values on the timeline object; andplotting on each of the metric value axes:
a boundary value and a marginal criteria value for a respective data group within the time interval between the start time indicator and the stop time indicator, wherein the boundary value, the marginal criteria value, and the metric-specific limit are each different value types; anda statistic value for a respective data group, wherein the statistic value is determined based on data group values associated with times between time values corresponding to the start time indicator and the stop time indicator. |
