The learning curve on day 3 of dashboard week has become more steeper as the challenge was to analyse world terrorism data from 1972 to 2017. Given the nature and sensitive topic , I have decided to put in an extra yards for analyzing the data.
Data prep : There are 2 data sets , one without 1993 and the rest with all other years . I had to union these them in alteryx using the union tool .
I started analysing the data on each region and found out that the Asia region has the highest number of attacks . I have also created a dual axis trend charts that gives a picture on attacks vs fatalities over the period of time .
The interesting insight i found was that in Asia , the incidents are more compared to middle east . however , the fatalities are high in middle east when compared to asia . This tells us the impact is higher in middle east despite having less incidents .
To get into a deeper picture on each region , I have created side by side maps and trends for all regions for a simple and detailed understanding to the audience.
