数据可视化代写 | Halloween Visualization

本次美国代写是数据可视化相关的一个assignment

This module’s assignment is to create a data visualization using data collected about trick-or-treaters in Cincinnati, OH.

The Data

• “Halloween data for Tableau 2016” is unpivoted which is ideal for creating visualizations in Tableau. Numbers in data file for Tableau are not cumulative.

• Data has been collected since 2008 and is updated annually on the DataPlusScience.com blog. o https://www.dataplusscience.com/HalloweenData.html

• The trick-or-treat count was recorded in 30 minute intervals.

• The night of trick-or-treating has always been on October 31st each year (some neighborhoods change the night of trick-or-treating).

• Official trick or treat hours are from 6pm-8pm, but there are often “stragglers” past 8pm that are not turned away. These stragglers are counted in the 8pm-8:15pm time slot. There has never been a trick-or-treater past 8:15pm.

• The type of candy did not vary year by year. It is always a general mix of candy purchased in bulk variety bags.

• Location of home:

• Neighborhood: East Walnut Hills/Evanston

• being a corner house on the neighborhood border likely increases the number of trick-or-treaters

• City: Cincinnati

• State: Ohio

• Country: United States

• Zip Code: 45207

The Assignment

1. Determine a story or goal for the visualization.

Examples:

• Homeowner dashboard summarizing Halloween

• Forecast future trick-or-treaters or estimate future candy need

• Explore variation of the number of trick-or-treaters year by year

2. This is a very simple data set. There are only a few years of data broken down into 4 half-hour time blocks with cumulative totals. Think broadly about the data.

Examples:

• The data is time series data – any additional choices?

• What comparisons can you make?

• What table calculations can be made?

3.) Build a data visualization based on your story or goal.

4). In addition to the Tableau file, submit a paragraph detailing your goal and the results of your analysis.

The best viz in terms of proper formatting, insightful analysis, and creativity will earn 5 extra credit points.
