As a small red dot with no natural resources, the Singapore government is always coming up with new initiatives to encourage Singaporeans to reduce their energy consumption and wastage. Recently, the Singapore Power (SP) introduced a utilities bill redesign in a bid to help fellow Singaporeans track and reduce their energy and water consumption. However, through our team's primary observation the current energy consumption data and statistic provided on the Energy Market Authority is not provided in a user friendly manner. While the data is wholesome, it lacks interactivity and appeal for layman user to conduct basic data exploration. Furthermore, the data provided also does not link to other factors such as the population demographics, which could potentially provide some interesting insights on the usage patterns of Singaporean households.
Hence, to align with the government's goal to reduce energy consumption and wastage across the island and improve public awareness and education on energy consumption in Singapore, our team set out to explore ways to improve how energy consumption data is being visualized and displayed.The key visualization question or team wished to achieve using our visual application is to help end-users explore:
To create a data visualisation application, our team then utilized d3.js to develop an application that is
- (1) Interactive
