Assignment Task

Overview

The assessed coursework consists of understanding, designing, developing, implementing and testing visualisation scenarios. The requirements for the coursework is to:

1. Identify and download appropriate data sources

2. Conceptualise, develop, and test a prototype of your visualisations

3. Plan, implement and debug prototype of your visualisations

4. Incorporate these tested visualisations into designs and demonstrate/discuss/present them

5. Write a report to explain your visualisations and to include your critical reflection of your visualisation and analysis techniques

6. Submit a video to present your visualisations and your code

Task

You need to design and implement an interactive web-based visualisation application using D3 on a theme of your choice.

The coursework should be unique to each student (including the report, code and any data sources). Any test data or resources used for the project, should be included when you submit the final report/code.

The unique visualisation dashboard you develop must be sufficiently complex, interactive and animated while containing multiple different graphical output. Your implementation must utilise multiple data sources, which are manipulated to communicate an in-depth coherent visualisation story. Appropriate data analytics techniques must be implemented.

Datasets

You are expected to identify and use a selection of data sources for this coursework. The datasets you select should be related to your selected theme for the coursework.

All exercises in this coursework should be attempted using your selected datasets, which should have sufficient variables and observations (columns and rows) to enable you to create your visualisations.
