Interactive Visualization

The Interactive Radiation Assessment System (IRAS) can be accessed here (view using desktop only): https://public.tableau.com/views/MiniCase2Assignment-Bernice/Introduction?:embed=y&:display_count=yes&publish=yes&:origin=viz_share_link

The following sections are divided into individual dashboard pages to elaborate on the interactivity.

Introduction Page

There is a large amount of data captured in the datasets provided. Furthermore, due to the many possible insights that can be driven from the dataset, it is not wise to put all the visual analytics into a single page dashboard. It will also be easier to divide the charts and visual analytics into meaning categories or pages to provide clarity. Flexibility has to be provided for navigation due to multiple pages of the dashboard. To do so, an "Introduction" page is created with a brief introduction and 2 different navigation categories: (1) Overview and (2) Areas of Contamination.

The following shows the introduction dashboard page:

Overview Page

Below depicts the overview dashboard page, showing insights for both static and mobile sensors as follows:

  • Area of contamination across the available time period.
  • Contaminated areas shown per day.
  • Variance of the radiation measurements throughout the whole period of time.
