Rangers'daily routine

Generally speaking, Ranger's patrols following some certain routes as well as time arrangements.

1) the most frequent routes for Rangers is (ranger base-gate8-general gate5-gate3-ranger stop3-ranger stop3-gate3-camping8-general gate3-gate4-ranger stop5-ranger stop5-gate4-gate5-ranger stop6-ranger stop6-gate5-gate8-ranger base), which has been patrolled for 156 times in one year. (2 times the second frequent routes of Ranger),it may indicate that blue pipit's habitats are around this route.

2) Ranger will not stay in every single range stop over 1 hour.(the colored blank represent the single checkpoint last duration, in this case, it's 49 minutes)

Question3: Unusual Patterns

SuspectNo: 20154519024544-322

Doubtful point1: This ID has 16 times of Episode(which means it has entered and then leave the natural park for 16 times.

Doubtful point2: This ID always passes through the enter the park in afternoon and leave in the midnight

Doubtful point3: This ID always enters the camping after 10 PM.

Doubtful point4: This ID always follows the same routes for 15 times(except for the first time): enter from entrance 4 on the first day, stay in the camping4 till midnight of the third day and then leave via entrance 4.

Doubtful point5: This ID always stays in the park for 3 days, from Friday till Sunday and leave on Monday.

Suspect Group

No:20154112014114-381;20153712013720-181:20162027042012-940; 20162904122951-717

Doubtful point1: like the suspect1, all those vehicles have multiple episodes, which means they do not return the id when they leave.

Doubtful point2: Apart from the multiple episodes, every time they enter the park, they follow the same route.

Doubtful point3: They all enter the park on Friday, stay 3 days, and then leave on Sunday.

Doubtful point4: They prefer the less popular campgrounds like camping1 and camping0.

Same routes.png

4 axle trucks break into gates and ranger stops

Sensors detect that some unauthorized 4 axle trucks break into the gates and ranger stops.

Doubtful point1: Pass through the gates(3,6,5)

Doubtful point2: They all follow the same routes.

Doubtful point3: They all pick Tuesday or Thursday.

Doubtful point4: They all pick the time when Rangers are off-duty.(2am-5am)

Doubtful point5: They all get access to the ranger stops(3,6)

The route for those suspects: entrance3-gate6-ranger stop6-gate5-general gate5-gate3-ranger stop3-ranger stop3-gate3-general gate5-gate5-ranger stop6-gate6-entrance3.

Suspect4.PNG

2 axle car slip into Ranger stop1

Ranger stops are working areas of Rangers, only ranger stop 0 and ranger stop 2 may get access by the visitors.

Doubtful point1: get access into Ranger stop1 without pass through the gate 2

Doubtful point2: They all follow the same route: entance1--ranger stop1---ranger stop1--entrance1.

Doubtful point3: Every time they get access to the ranger stop, they only stay on longer than 4 hours. (In this case, it's 233 minutes, represented by the colored blank)

Entrance1.PNG

Top 3 Possible Causes

1: SuspectNo: 20154519024544-322. This vehicle with 15 times repeated episodes.

2: Those 4 axle trucks which get access to those restricted areas when Rangers off-duty. Especially they follow a route which is the most frequent route patrolled by the Rangers.

3: Suspect group: the reason why they pick the least popular camping may due to their doubtful intention,(do something while avoid attracting other's attention)
