Quiver is a Foundry application designed for no-code analysis of objects and time series data. This training will focus on the methods that application developers and their team members can use Quiver to build dynamic visualizations with Ontology object data. These artifacts can then be configured to interact with other Ontology-aware applications, including Object Views and Workshop modules.
In the Configuring Object Views course, you configured native widgets for your Object View. One of those — the Chart widget — provides an in-app suggestion: “We highly recommend using Quiver or Workshop charts instead.” Quiver is more flexible, sophisticated, and interoperable with the Ontology than native charting capabilities in Object Views (or even those in Workshop).
This course is designed with application developers in mind. Although Quiver is primarily an analytical tool, you won’t be doing any number crunching or advanced analysis today. The aim is not to make you expert analysts; it’s to teach you basic Quiver chart development and interpolation patterns.
This tutorial appears at this point in the path sequence because (a) it can make use of your “read-only” (i.e., non-editable) passenger and flight alert object types and (b) it will expose you to some patterns of interoperability between Ontology-aware applications.
The general outcome in this training is a set of charts that provide additional context to individual flight alerts. You want to enable users to open an Object View (or Workshop application) and see the same set of charts populated with data unique to the object in view.
