Feedback by Chua Gim Hong
Overall, very interesting analysis and easy to understand visuals.
For the first two graphs, please explore if you can improve on the clarity by (1) aligning the title with the description/labels on both axes (2) sorting the colour legends in the same order as the graphs and (3) using percentile on vertical axes to avoid cluttering of low values near the horizontal axes.
For the next five graphs, please explore increasing the size of the images and the above suggestions.
When using the map, please explore a larger image so that the fonts on the maps are large enough.

Hi Sanghavy, you have put nice efforts in your work. But there are few points that I would like to highlight which we learnt in class as well as through reader’s perspective.
Reader’s perspective:
1. The last point in “Vehicle Activities” section is not supported by any visual. It will be better if you can provide one.
Aesthetics:
1. For all the line graphs especially in “Vehicle Activities” section, inking can be done to darken the axis values a bit. It is too light.
2. In the maps used for showing unusual patterns for 4 axle trucks, you can reduce the width of the line to show connectivity.
Clarity:
1. In “Vehicle Activities” section, labels are missing in the graph.

You presented a very nice analysis, which is answering the questions of the challenge. Please find my comments apart from what Akanhsha has mentioned.
- In daily patterns you should also look at the activity of vehicles during the night which is very important deducing the answer. There is vehicle activity during the night, no patrolling activity and this might be one of the reasons for the decline in bird population.
- I notice that in the gate types based on the activity you have used two separate graphs, instead 1 graph could have been provided. Maybe, you would want to also explore dual axis feature in Tableau. This would lend more readability to the plots.
- You have only shown one pattern for question 2. You could have derived more patterns over a long period of time. Take you classmates' answers as reference and try to derive more patterns which will help you in answering the questions .
