Citi-Bikes - View the story on Tableau site (Online - Public Tableau)
In this work, I generated regular reports for city officials to publicize and improve the city program New York Citi Bike.
Since 2013, the Citi Bike Program has implemented a robust infrastructure for collecting data on the program's utilization. Through the team's efforts, each month bike data is collected, organized, and made public on the Citi Bike Data webpage.
However, while the data has been regularly updated, the team has yet to implement a dashboard or sophisticated reporting process. City officials have a number of questions on the program, so the task is to build a set of data reports to provide the answers.
-
Aggregate the data found in the Citi Bike Trip History Logs for year 2018 and find two unexpected phenomena.
-
Design visualizations for each discovered phenomena.
-
How many trips have been recorded total during year 2018?
-
What are the peak hours in which bikes are used during summer months?
-
What are the peak hours in which bikes are used during winter months?
-
What are the top 10 stations in the city for starting a journey?
-
What are the top 10 stations in the city for ending a journey?
- What is the gender breakdown of active participants (Male v. Female)?
- What is the trip duration by Age?
- Which bikes (by ID) are most likely due for repair or inspection in the timespan?
- How variable is the utilization by bike ID?
Next,
-
Use the visualizations to design a dashboard for each phenomena.
-
The dashboards accompanied with an analysis explaining why the phenomena may be occuring.
-
A static map that plots all bike stations with a visual indication of the most popular locations to start and end a journey with zip code data overlaid on top.
Finally, create final presentation
- Create a Tableau story that brings together the visualizations, requested maps, and dashboards.
