Graphs

Choropleth Graph

  • A choropleth chart is a thematic chart in which areas are shaded or patterned in proportion to the measurement of the statistical variable being displayed on the graph.
  • Since we have many measurements such as NDVI, NDWI, NDMI, BSI and AVI, we use Choropleth to represent these measurements on the graph.
  • In order to relate each measurement with its actual meaning, we select appropriate color to show on the Graph.
  • For example, NDVI represent the health of plants so we choose to use Divergence of Orange and Green.
  • Blue for Water, brown for soil, so on and so forth.

Line Graph

  • Each of the lines in the line graph shown below represent the factor making up the relevant measurement and their average value by month.
  • In this case, we choose NDVI as measurement and the formula of NDVI is (B4-B3)/(B4+B3). Therefore the two factors of NDVI are B4 and B3.
  • From the graph, we can see that there is little difference between B4 and B3 on February, March, November and December.
  • In order to get a clear and obvious outcome, we need to analyze data on other months which differentiate the factors.

Area Graph

  • The X-axis of Area Graph is the bin of measurement such as NDVI and the Y-axis is the number of pixels in the image.
  • By looking at the Area Graph, the area with high NDVI value can more or less reflect the health condition of the plant on particular date.
  • By comparing two Area Graphs in the same coordinates, we can tell whether the overall health condition of the plant is getting better or not.
  • We can use Plant Region as filter to focus our analysis on the Plant Region.
  • In this graph, the main area with high NDVI value is shifting left from 2014-08-24 to 2015-09-12, which means that health condition of plant is getting worse from 2014 to 2015.

Histogram

  • We use the bin of measurement such as NDVI as X-axis and number of pixels in the image.
  • It's the bar chart form of Area graph, but we can use it the do some interactions with histograms with other measurement.
  • There are two obvious spikes in this Histogram which could be the possible features in the image.

Dashboard

Home Page

  • The "Home Page" Dashboard shows the background and three questions of this Mini Challenge 3.

Introduction

  • This "Introduction" Dashboard shows the 12 images processed by QGIS with their date and cloud coverage.
  • The table is a description of the 6 bands information in the image.

Main Features

  • The "Main Features" Dashboard shows the clustering result of the features in the image.
  • The left one is processed by QGIS and the right one is processed by Tabelau.
  • The legend shows that there are five main features in the Preserve, which are Plant Region, Water Region, Paths, Farmland and Construction area.
