INTRODUCTION


DinoFun World is an amusement park sitting on about 215 hectares and hosting thousands of visitors each day. It is well known for its exciting rides and events. Between 6 and 8 Jun 2014, DinoFun hosted an internationally-renowned football star Scott Jones, who is also a hometown hero as he is from a nearby town. For this “Scott Jones Weekend”, DinoFun scheduled two stage shows from that Friday to Sunday, for Scott to talk about his life and career at DinoFun World. However, the event was marred by crime and mayhem, perpetuated by a poor, misguided and disgruntled figure from Scott’s past.

While the crimes were rapidly solved, this project is a follow-up to the investigation, for a better understanding of how people move and communicate in the park. From there, we also seek to find out the motivations for changing patterns.


HOW TO NAVIGATE


The dfferent sections of the wikipage can be accessed at the header tab at the top:

  • Approach: includes methodology, data-preparation, etc
  • Findings: preliminary analysis/findings observed through the exploratory stages, and more specific updates to the general analysis, includes more visualisation charts and diagrams.
  • Responses: this is the consolidated findings as the deliverables expected for the assignment. It contains the response within word limits and images.
  • Evaluation: as part of learning to use the visualisation tools, the evaluation of their effectiveness will be written here.
