What Is a Circle Spoke Diagram

This circle-spoke diagram sample shows how leadership and data provide essential coordination of other functions in an asset management environment. Leadership points the way and common data systems keep all divisions communicating effectively.
This circle-spoke diagram example was created on the base of illustration of article "Beyond the Short Term: Transportation Asset Management for Long-Term Sustainability, Accountability and Performance" from the website of The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).

"Asset management, broadly defined, refers to any system that monitors and maintains things of value to an entity or group. It may apply to both tangible assets such as buildings and to intangible concepts such as intellectual property and goodwill. Asset management is a systematic process of operating, maintaining, upgrading, and disposing of assets cost-effectively. Alternative views of asset management in the engineering environment are: the practice of managing assets to achieve the greatest return (particularly useful for productive assets such as plant and equipment), and the process of monitoring and maintaining facilities systems, with the objective of providing the best possible service to users (appropriate for public infrastructure assets)."

Circle-Spoke Diagrams (Spoke charts) have a central item surrounded by other items in a circle. The circle-spoke diagram is a diagram meant to illustrate that each spoke has equal value. Circle-spoke diagrams are used to show the relationships between a single main element and several satellites.
The circle-spoke diagrams are used to show the features or components of a central item in marketing, management documents and presentations.

This circle-spoke diagram sample illustrates the proximity marketing.
"Proximity marketing is the localized wireless distribution of advertising content associated with a particular place. Transmissions can be received by individuals in that location who wish to receive them and have the necessary equipment to do so.
Distribution may be via a traditional localized broadcast, or more commonly is specifically targeted to devices known to be in a particular area.
The location of a device may be determined by:
(1) A cellular phone being in a particular cell.
(2) A Bluetooth or WiFi device being within range of a transmitter.
(3) An Internet enabled device with GPS enabling it to request localized content from Internet servers.
(4) A NFC enabled phone can read a RFID chip on a product or media and launch localized content from internet servers.
Communications may be further targeted to specific groups within a given location, for example content in tourist hot spots may only be distributed to devices registered outside the local area.
Communications may be both time and place specific, e.g. content at a conference venue may depend on the event in progress.
Uses of proximity marketing include distribution of media at concerts, information (weblinks on local facilities), gaming and social applications, and advertising." [Proximity marketing. Wikipedia]

This circle-spoke diagram sample illustrates the target market concept.
"A target market is a group of customers towards which a business has decided to aim its marketing efforts and ultimately its merchandise. A well-defined target market is the first element to a marketing strategy. The marketing mix variables of product, place (distribution), promotion and price are the four elements of a marketing mix strategy that determine the success of a product in the marketplace."

This circle-spoke diagram sample shows the social determinants of health. It was created on the base of the hub-and-spoke diagram from the Health Canada website. [hc-sc.gc.ca/ sr-sr/ pubs/ hpr-rpms/ bull/ 2005-climat/ 2005-climat-6-eng.php]
"Social determinants of health are the economic and social conditions – and their distribution among the population – that influence individual and group differences in health status. They are risk factors found in one's living and working conditions (such as the distribution of income, wealth, influence, and power), rather than individual factors (such as behavioural risk factors or genetics) that influence the risk for a disease, or vulnerability to disease or injury. According to some viewpoints, these distributions of social determinants are shaped by public policies that reflect the influence of prevailing political ideologies of those governing a jurisdiction. ...
In 2003, the World Health Organization (WHO) Europe suggested that the social determinants of health included:
(1) Social gradients (life expectancy is shorter and disease is more common further down the social ladder).
(2) Stress (including stress in the workplace).
(3) Early childhood development.
(4) Social exclusion.
(5) Unemployment.
(6) Social support networks.
(7) Addiction.
(8) Availability of healthy food.
(9) Availability of healthy transportation." [Social determinants of health. Wikipedia]
