Final Day of Dashboard Week! | Survivor

 For the last day of dashboard week, we had to create a dashboard using the data that was used for the DSNY 3 final application! That data was about the classic show Survivor, which I was not familiar with prior to this project. It was interesting that we were given the choice between two different datasets for this theme, one that was joined and another one that was not joined. For this project, I chose to stick with the joined dataset.

 There was very minimal cleaning that had to be done. For instance, I fixed a misspelling of South Africa and created some groups/bins.

 With that, here is the initial draft dashboard that I created.

 Overall, I enjoyed this project even though I knew pretty much nothing about the show and all its intricacies. For further additions, I would probably give the user the option to not only look at sole survivors but also runner ups. Maybe it would be interesting to also see who the people voted out and whether or not they returned to the show. It could also be interesting to see how things like “idols” were used.
