Baseline

The Baseline Viewlet allows comparison of any two periods for a given trend. This is a useful viewlet to answer questions such as "Is my building consuming more energy compared to yesterday or this time last year?" A delta percentage and value is shown at the bottom of the viewlet, and it will adjust on the fly if the user zooms into the viewlet and pans left or right through the data trend.
