Conclusion

Interactive Visualization

Features	Reasons
	I used a range picker in most of my dashboard so that the user can zoom in on a certain range of date. The user can also still click on the date itself and select a day which makes it multi functional.
	In order to be more user-friendly, instead of having multiple charts that visualise the same variables such as time and value. I decided to create parameters such as variable type and activity type. This is to allow the user to choose what they want in just one chart. For example, if the user wants to look at count instead of average. The user simply must click on count within the activity type.
	Just like before I decided to give more choices for the users where there would be a standard chart that is available, and the user can choose to put in the extra variable or not. For example, if the user wants to add damage area for a more in-depth visualisation, the user can just click on damage area within choice and it will automatically be placed into the “row” field
	If the user is more into visualisation, we have this feature that will plot the different variables chosen such as average damage value or count for shake intensity. It will then slowly plot to allow the user to view how is the reporting like during the 4 days.

Dashboard Explanation

The following image shows the dashboard that I have created (missing background page). In each image, it shows a paragraph of what the image/figure/table is supposed to describe and the filters available.
