quad chart
A quad chart is a form of technical documentation used to briefly describe an invention or other innovation through writing, illustration and/or photographs.〔(Quad Charts ) at the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory official website. British Ministry of Defence. Accessed February 19, 2013.〕 Such documents are described as "quad" charts because they are divided into four quadrants laid out on a landscape perspective.〔NASA Technical Memorandum, Issues 4192-4200, pg. 3. Ames Research Center, 1990.〕〔Bob Paladino, ''Innovative Corporate Performance Management: Five Key Principles to Accelerate Results'', pg. 300. Hoboken: John Wiley & Sons, 2011. ISBN 9780470627730〕〔James E. Driskell and Jennifer King, "Conducting Applied Experimental Research." Taken from ''Laboratory Experiments in the Social Sciences'', part three, pg. 341. Eds. Murray Webster and Jane Sell. Waltham: Academic Press, 2007. ISBN 9780123694898〕 They are typically one-page only; their succinctness facilitates rapid decision-making.〔Government Accountability Office report to the United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, (Managing for results enhancing agency use of performance information for management decision making ), pg. 28. GAO-05-927, September 2005.〕 Though shorter, quad charts often serve in a similar capacity to white papers and the two documents are often requested alongside one another.
==History==
Quad charts as a genre were developed by the United States Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in an attempt to improve budgeting and planning systems, and became widely used in the Administration's National Weather Service.〔 The genre's development was parallel to that of display boards, also an early tool used by the NWS for staff communication.
In the early 2000s, software was developed to allow automated creation of quad charts as a means of saving time for technical writers who would otherwise spend long periods of time drafting them.〔(QUAD-CHART EXPRESS makes defense quad chart submissions to Technical Support Working Group (TSWG) quick and easy ). PRWeb, February 20, 2003.〕
