In this second example, we'll create a dashboard intended to provide information in a much higher level of view; that is, that of a display intended to be scanned rapidly in order for us to get a big-picture viewpoint. Typically, you'd see this type of dashboard in a kiosk-type context, such as in an operations center or a public informational display.
We'll be conveying a set of data that's similar to what we had in the previous section, but we'll only have a limited slice of each data series, typically the most current readings. We'll be making extensive use of the Stat panel as opposed to the Graph panel, as we did previously. The idea we're trying to convey is that the dashboard will be displayed in a context that makes details hard to read from a distance.
