Dashboard Week Day 3: Seattle Bike Counters

by Andy Kriebel

For day 3, the team will be analyzing cycling traffic data from Seattle. The data is from the City of Seattle. But there’s a twit, they must use Tableau 7, which they can download here. You’re welcome in advance.

Lorna Edit: Tableau 7 is unavailable for download. Instead I challenge you to use Tableau Public Webedit ONLY! Also - You're Welcome!

Requirements:

  1. Download the data for all bike counter locations.
  2. If data prep is required, they can use either Alteryx or Tableau Prep.
  3. They are more than welcome to supplement it with additional data. They can find more data about Seattle on their open data website.
  4. The rest of the standard rules apply.

A quick Google search will lead them to some fantastic articles and visualizations. I’m really interested to see what insights they find as I wonder how much of the progress Seattle has made can be incorporated into a city like London.
