The baseline spiral, starting in the planning phase, requirements are gathered and risk is assessed. Each subsequent spirals builds on the baseline spiral. Its one of the  software development models  like  Waterfall ,  Agile ,  V-Model . Planning Phase:  Requirements are gathered during the planning phase.
