PROBLEM & MOTIVATION
Jury

Drug trafficking is a global illicit trading involving the cultivation, manufacture, distribution and sales of substances which are subject to drug prohibition laws. The consequences of illicit drug use are widespread, causing permanent physical and emotional damage to users and negatively impacting their families, coworkers, and many others with whom they have contact.

Globally, the movement and presence of these substances are difficult to track and control and poses a challenge for law enforcement. One of the main ways law enforcement controls the prevalence of these drugs is by maintaining strong boarder security. The seizure of drugs at the boarder is anything but a simple task, profiling and random guess work is commonly used as methods for detection. However, with the proper and in-depth analysis of trafficking trends we may be better able to control and reduce the slippages of traffickers through the boarders.


OBJECTIVE

With this project we aim to create visualizations that will allow the easy visual analysis of the following:

leaf

Mighty Morphine Power Rangers wants to explore the current drug route and be able to draw some observations on the different drug routes taken, methods used to conceal the drugs, the most active region and the most active day of drug trafficking.

leaf

  • Which day of the week has more drug traffic?
  • Is the traffic more or less on certain days? Why?
  • Which mode of transport is more widely used? Which drug?
  • When is the down period / when is the up period of drug trafficking?
DATA SOURCE

Datasets are retrieved from https://data.unodc.org/#state:1
This dataset provide a detailed information of each drug seizure:

Source: link

Example shows the different intensity of percentage of the population affected by drug abuse and the total number of drug abusers as shape circle.
Pros:

  • Able to see an general picture of the drug landscape.
  • Visually appealing and straightforward.

Cons:

  • Unable to drill-down for more detailed information.
  • Some parts of the world are not properly represented.

Stacked Distribution Pipeline

Example showcase a beautifully designed stacked bar, showing the ratio of revenue brought in by each type of drug that fuels the different types of activities at the right end of the chart.
Pros:

  • Gives the viewer a clear idea of what this chart is about.
  • Easy to understand and highly customisable.

Cons:

  • Too high level.
  • Viewers might miss the fine details because of the colour.

Price OHLC

Example shows the price level, high and low for a type of drug along the years.
Pros:

  • A detailed view of the price level along the years.
  • Easy to understand.

Cons:

  • Viewers who do not know how to read this chart might misinterpret the values.
  • Not highly customisable.

Drug Prevalence Boxplot

Example shows the prevalence of a drug abuse in each country
Pros:

  • Many information on one chart.
  • High level and low level view of information.

Cons:

  • Not straightforward, need time to digest the information.
  • Chart might need filters to help summarise the data.
PROPOSED STORYBOARD

This world map chart will show the inbound vs outbound traffic of drugs by country.
Filters that can help dissect the visualisation:

  • Origin
  • Destination
  • Types of Drug
  • Mode of Transport
  • DateTime
  • Amount
