Regardless of the problem complexity, most of analytics questions for a given business problem can be answered using standard approach. The approach, I have considered to analyze chemical contamination around Boonsong Lekagul Wildlife Preserve, is no different whereby I attempt to solve the problem in following sequence:

  • Understand the problem context
  • Understand the structure of data
  • Prepare data for required analysis
  • Perform exploratory analysis to understand trend in chemical readings
  • Draw meaningful insights useful for hydrology department to further investigate

As depicted in above diagram, Template:Interactive visualization is the core of our solution approach. By nature, analytics solutions are not sequential but executed in iterative fashion where analysts move back and forth among different stages of analysis.

To garner a holistic idea of chemical contamination, we would attempt to solve the problem using different visualization techniques such as time-series analysis of observed readings. In the process, we also attempt to build useful dashboards to be used by investigators to further analysis.
