What are the radars and how to use them?
Working with futures with digital tools makes horizon scanning and scenario building work significantly more efficient. Futures Platform’s digital foresight solution brings structure to foresight work by visualising future projections in 360-degree radar views. See how to create and edit radars in our user manual.
The Futures Platform radar functionalities allow for trends to be grouped, categorised and placed in a meaningful manner. This way, radars can be customised to fit different purposes. For instance, users can choose to build radars with time ranges, e.g. 10, 50 or 100 years into the future, group them thematically according to social, economic, technological or environmental changes; or combine any given variables. See here some examples of what radars can be used for.
Grouping and visualising futures phenomena in a 360-degree view is a great way to explore the links between different futures changes and phenomena in a contextual environment. Futures Platform's foresight radars are completely customisable which allows you to use them as you need. Our team of futurists have created, and continuously update, over 40 foresight radars for different themes which allows you to open a futurist-created future view in less then a minute. See the full list of our futurist-created radars here.
Did you know, that you can share radars easily with a link? Here are quick instrcutions for reading the radar which you can send to the people you are sharing the radar with. You can also embed the radar to another collaboration tool (Miro, Mural etc.), on your website or into your intranet.
