The three-dimensional risk matrix



3D Risk matrix for political and military analysis

3D Risk matrix visualizing a situational overview on a politically stable region. This visualization clusters the ratings of 50 risk areas pertaining to the region under consideration and projects the cluster to the 2D matrices limiting the volume of visualization.

3D Risk matrix for political and military analysis

3D Risk matrix visualizing a situational overview on a poorly developed region. The rating cluster has a maximum in the center of the volume but also exhibits outlier ratings towards stability and instability.




The three dimensional risk matrix



3D Risk matrix for political and military analysis

3D Risk matrix visualizing a situational overview on a region of significant instability. The rating cluster cummulates in the outer rim regions (red) of the volume. This means that most risk area ratings have values indicating high instability.

3D Risk matrix for political and military analysis

A 3D risk matrix overview of a ficticious region with evenly distributed risk area ratings. Such a region is exceedingly unlikely to exist in reality. This plot was added for giving an example what impossible clusters might look like.
