I’ve got the good fortune of working for a very very excellent analytics company, and thus I get to use some really powerful software to indulge my love of data analysis, with maps if possible.
Over the months, I have developed some dashboards treating subjects such as health, deprivation, electoral analysis and prediction, crime and other demographic data. These have used custom maps and lately have started to employ R functions.
Throughout this building period, I have taken my project and its software through many upgrades on my laptop – and I also have a Linux VM which I keep in sync version-wise.
I have been pleasantly surprised at the complete lack of any issues. The software is solid and once I finally learnt to backup my plugins folder every custom aspect was preserved and all my dashboards (now called “Dossiers”) work.
Whilst checking my dashboards, I thought I would showcase a few of the apps that have gone through so many upgrades, and which have given me some very useful information.
I hope to return soon with more interesting data sets and data stories.
