Contents
Motivation
Energy growth drives the well-being and prosperity across the globe. Growing demand for energy has to be met in a safe and environmentally conscious manner. Rapidly changing energy dynamics determine the course of our economic development, geopolitics, technological breakthroughs, massive investments and trade flows.
|
Objective
Static visualization and reports do not allow for direct interaction with data, enhanced assimilation of information, quick access to relevant insights and drill-down analysis. By using interactive, visual data analytics techniques we will be bringing the above-mentioned capabilities to the interface. |
About The Data Source
Critique of the Existing Visualizations
We noticed that all the existing visualizations in the BP Statistical Review report are static in nature which limits the usage of the plots and restricts information retrieval. Below image shows a sample visualization from the report:

Visualization Deliverables and Packages Used
We plan to use the following R packages to come up with our visualizations:
