Overview

Scope of Work

1. Data Gathering and Scoping
Data have been gathered from our sponsor which consists of data across 3 months and spanning across several countries. The data given to us are all in .csv formats.
2. Research on Software and Proposal Preparation
Our team has researched and discussed on the software and applications used in analysing and visualising the data with our supervisor and sponsor.

We will mainly utilise JMP Pro for the clustering, exploratory, and seasonality analysis and QGIS for our geospatial analysis. Our sponsor has expressed their preference for the final product to be in Power BI as they are familiar with it. In addition, they have expressed interest for the final product to be dynamic, meaning any input of future data can tap on the methods used to produce the results.

Currently we will focus on analysis on JMP Pro and QGIS and have plans to decide how to compromise the dynamic capabilities within our limitations.

3. Data Cleaning and restructuring

After looking and familiarising ourselves with the data, we discovered the complexity of the data. The data is not only large in size, contains a wide variety, and also inconsistent across different countries. This inconsistency is due to the differences in language used for reporting as well as different systems used. As such, certain coding languages could not be used to process the values and other solutions have to be looked into.

Due to the complexity and variety of the data, we will be conducting data cleaning by removing duplicates, ensuring consistency by inserting the header column, merging the data files, filtering the data by countries and checking that the data is appropriate and ready for analysis.

Work Plan

• Fortnightly meetings with Supervisor
• Monthly meetings with Sponsor

Midterm Changes:

• Exploratory Analysis extended by 2 weeks due to delay caused by data complications
• Clustering module shifted to start after recess week
• Time Series was brought forward and will end earlier than initial deadline (Wk 9 instead of Wk 11)
• Geospatial extended by another 2 weeks due to sponsor data/online data compatability issues
• Web app changed to Rshiny app. Reasons being that Rshiny is interactive, free, and can accomodate a wider range of analytics. Extend by 2 weeks because we are new to this
