RAG Status – Red / Amber / Green – can be shown in a variety of formats. Which is the best RAG Status graphic?
Traffic lights are useful RAG graphics if you have just one or two statuses to report. If you want to show more, LED lights can be used. Dials are useful RAG status indicators if you want to show e.g. where in “Green” your green status currently is; i.e. Is it very green?.. or is it nearly amber?
You can use the Red Amber Green of traffic lights in different graphic styles: USA traffic lights, UK traffic lights, New York style traffic lights, or just a plain generic style.
