Graph view

Graph view

The Graph View shows every day, start to finish. You can see here a linear progression (bar charts) over the weeks. This can help you track the consistency of material volume movement as you normally would in the field (How much material was moved?) In addition, the black line with dots shows the cumulative material volume. Click any bar to see the daily cut, fill, and cumulative volumes.

Graph View functions

The chart is configurable with a limited number of filters:

  • Date range

  • Spatial such as boundary, alignment, or custom area

The chart is dual axis and includes three scales:

  1. Daily values are shown on the left.

  2. Cumulative values are shown on the right.

  3. Dates are shown on the bottom.

You can click a legend label to toggle Cut, Fill, and Cumulative bars on/off in the view. If, for example, you are only being paid for cut volumes, simply remove fill from the chart and track the daily cut quantities. If you are doing a landfill job, you can toggle cut off so you see only fill volumes

The total volume is always listed at the top of the chart under the name.

You can also filter by Daily or Weekly. Weekly combines the daily charts into weeks and sums them.

You can also filter the view in the standard way, but filters for progress volumes are independent from other dashboard filters

Scroll in/out to see a shorter or longer time period in the chart.

To specify an alternate time span, click the Global Filters icon on the Actions bar at the upper right. Use Date Range Filters > Custom.

Note: The maximum project extents (date range) is 1000 days, but the default extents for the Graph View is the last 31 days, not the full project extents.

Tip: Save your custom data range as a Favorite to quickly apply it at any time.

To configure the cut and fill colors, as well as material density factors (shrinkage and bulkage), click the More icon (ellipsis) and select Project Settings > Volume. The factors you set are reflected in the material volumes.

See progress volume details by day

Within the Progress Volumes view, you can click a bar and then View Time-related on map in the pop-up for any individual day in the chart to get a ‘snapshot’ of that day’s progress volumes in the Map view, including:

  • Total volumes

  • Total fill

  • Total cut

  • Number of machines - Click the link to open the Contributing Machines pane for the names of the machines. This can help you understand why some days are more productive than others.

This feature lets you easily see where work in the chart was done for specific days. The Progress Volumes view is dynamic, so if you apply a filter with different days, the map will update.
