Hi Akangsha,

Great job on your visualizations and detailed answers for all the VAST questions. Here are some points for your consideration:

Question 1:

Clarity: Nice job in providing a background context using JMP Pro 13 before answering the question. I like the use of stepped colors, although I wonder if you would consider showing lesser than 5 steps of color to avoid extra color categories of readings.

Aesthetics: Very nice work in using different shades of the same color scheme. Consider increasing the font size of chart titles. A very minor adjustment can also be made in reformatting hours of the day to show 12AM, 1AM etc. instead of 0,1,2 etc; to improve readability.

Question 2:

Clarity: Good use of the dot plot and Horizon chart to highlight the basis of your findings. If it fits your preference, consider the use of annotations and highlighting the relevant part of your analysis while taking screenshots to answer the VAST questions. Also, you can look into renaming the column labels from DateTime to something more meaningful.

Aesthetics: Nice use of colors and size on the dotplots to show the magnitude of readings. Consider rotating the labels of chemicals to horizontal orientation to improve readability.

Question 3:

Clarity: Nice work in backtracking the chemical readings to its Factory origin point. The use of the line graph is particularly smart because it highlights the magnitude of readings and the intended audience and select the high points to gauge the source of the chemical emissions. For readability purpose, consider reformatting the date displayed on your dashboard. Also, a color legend for your line graph might help in identifying the chemicals displayed.

Aesthetics: Nice contrast of colors and the use of the table heatmap to showcase the chemical readings at any give time frame. Consider adding borders to your dashboard, especially the section that shows the geographical illustration of the factories and sensors at Mistford.


Great job in visualizing your investigative journey and thank you for your feedback and inputs during the course of this assignment!

Hi Akangsha,
Great job on the assignment! Thoroughly analyzed, well written, and visually appealing. Few points that you could consider:
Aesthetics:
1. (Q1) The first two charts( Calendar plots) explain the overall sensor performance very clearly, however the sheet title and axis titles are small making it hard to read. You could increase the font or enhance the font by making it bold or enlarge the picture.
2. (Q1) The "Key Findings" for each section is not consistent with the other sections in terms of using breakline (br/).

Clarity:
1. (Q1, Q2) Good analysis with horizon plots. Clearly explained the harmful effects of each chemical.
2. (Q2) Many images have Date Time mentioned which can be labelled in a better way.
3/ (Q3) On the coxcomb dashboard, i dont understand what the right most elements( 30 and the arrow bar) refers to. A label describing it will help understand better.


GOOD WORK!!!
