However, the shaking got stronger on 8 April and more cities were affected by the earthquake. From the shake map, we can see that the following cities are more likely to be greatly affected by the earthquake.

+ | # Citizens from Old Town, Safe Town, Wilson Forest, Terrapin Springs, Pepper Mill, Cheddarford, Easton, East Parton, and West Parton made a high number of reports starting from 8 April, 8 AM. We can conclude that this is the time when the first earthquake started. Do note that records, where the impact score is empty, are filtered out. | ||

+ | # The hardest-hit areas appear to be Old Town, Safe Town, Pepper Mill, and Wilson Forest. This is supported by the shake map analysis since the neighbourhoods are located near to the epicenter of the earthquake and we can expect these neighbourhoods to be more affected by the earthquake. | ||
+ | # We can also identify anomalies in the data for Old Town and Wilson Forest. For Old Town, the neighbourhood is most likely to be greatly affected by the earthquake due to its close proximity to the epicenter, but no reports were made 1 to 2 hours after the earthquake on 8 April, 8 AM. A possible reason was that the earthquake resulted in a power outage and the citizens were unable to report the damages. As for Wilson Forest, the power outage situation appears to be worse since reports were made at the start of the earthquake on 8 April, 8 AM. Before the earthquake, no reports were made except for 6 April, 2 PM. (The other data points before the earthquake have Null shake intensity impact scores) | ||
+ | # On 8 April, Old Town, Safe Town, and Pepper Mill are consistently the top 3 cities with the highest number of reports with an impact level of strong, very strong and severe. This is supported by the average shake intensity chart with the 3 cities having a high average shake intensity score as compared to the other cities. | ||
+ | # Old Town is the hardest-hit city. Set the filter of ‘Select Neighbourhood’ to Old Town and we can see that the maximum shake intensity for Old Town on 8 April, 8 AM is 9 out of 10! | ||

+ | From the shake intensity charts, we can deduce that the following cities need more help from 8 April, 8 AM to 11 AM: Old Town, Safe Town, Pepper Mill, and Wilson Forest as identified above. The team should respond to these cities. The number of reports made by neighborhood chart also shows that areas that are hardest hit may not always have a high number of reports and vice-versa. Therefore, using the mode of the impact score seems to be a better option in assessing the extent of the damage instead of solely using the number of reports in our analysis. | ||

+ | || | ||
+ | The time frame for this analysis will be 8 April 8 AM to 11 AM. The hardest-hit areas identified in the previous dashboards are Old Town, Safe Town, Pepper Mill, and Wilson Forest. Taking this into consideration, we can further analyze the intensity of each damage type across the city in this dashboard. Do note that Wilson Forest is considered a high priority area despite the lack of reports. | ||

+ | | Buildings || Broadview, Old Town and Wilson Forest. || Broadview has older-single family homes known for their architectural styles and masonry construction. It is also a great place to raise a family. We can assume that the people who live here are either old or live together as a family. Since the buildings are old, it is logical to conclude that the buildings and the people are prone to experience greater damage. As for Old Town, they are the hardest-hit area and it is a historic center. Wilson Forest also showed a high mode for building damages of 8 at 9 AM but this is based on only one report which is not conclusive enough. The team should focus on Broadview and Old Town first. | ||

+ | | Medical || Southton,Palace Hills, Weston and Safe Town || We also have to consider that there are some neighbourhoods with hospitals and they could be affected by the earthquake. It is critical to address the damages to the medical facilities promptly to prevent long waiting times. Trauma Hospital in Downtown and Eagle Peak Hospital in Southton are specialized in trauma and critical care and demand for these hospitals would be higher. The other hospitals may not be fully equipped to deal with emergency care. We will analyze these 2 cities first. | ||

+ | |||
+ | The Amenities filter was used to focus more on neighbourhoods with hospitals. Downtown seem less affected as compared to Eagle Peak Hospital in Southon. Therefore, Southton should be one of the priority areas. The rest of the neighbourhoods identified have a high mode score and should be prioritized. Palace Hills have a high mode impact score for medical damages and it has a hospital. However, it is located very far from the earthquake. | ||

It located in Safe Town which is one of the hardest-hit areas. The mode for power damages in Safe Town is about 3. However, it is crucial for the team to restore power since it can affect the recovery efforts (e.g. Some hospitals like the Community Hospital in Broadview have a high mode impact score for power from 8 AM to 12 PM on 8 April). Wilson Forest and Chapparal should also be prioritized due to a gap in reports made in those 2 cities. It is expected that during major incident time, there will be more reports. | ||

+ | | Roads and Bridges || Southton, Palace Hills, Old Town, Broadview || We will analyze the road damage for neighbourhoods with hospitals. If the roads to the hospitals are obstructed or damages, it will be a problem for the medical team since patients have to be transported to another hospital depending on the severity of the situation. Repair works can also affect the rescue time. Therefore, the team should provide more assistance to these neighbourhoods with hospitals to ensure that the journey to the hospital is as smooth as possible. The Amenities filter was used to focus on neighbourhoods with hospitals for this analysis. Broadview is undergoing resurfacing of residential streets resulting in minimal delays of traffic. Therefore, the other neighbourhoods identified should be prioritized first. | ||

From the shake intensity charts, we can deduce that the following cities need more help from 8 April, 8 AM to 11 AM: Old Town, Safe Town, Pepper Mill, and Wilson Forest as identified above. The team should respond to these cities. The number of reports made by neighborhood chart also shows that areas that are hardest hit may not always have a high number of reports and vice-versa.

The time frame for this analysis will be 8 April 8 AM to 11 AM. The hardest-hit areas identified in the previous dashboards are Old Town, Safe Town, Pepper Mill, and Wilson Forest. Taking this into consideration, we can further analyze the intensity of each damage type across the city in this dashboard. Do note that Wilson Forest is considered a high priority area despite the lack of reports. An assumption made is that the emergency response team comprise of different divisions and responders are specialized or trained to deal with a specific damage type.
