Executive Summary
The concept of data visualization has evolved over the years from the traditional Microsoft excel
spreadsheets to more advanced visual representations such as dials and gauges, fever, pie, and
bar charts that are more detailed, infographics, heat maps, spark lines, and geographic maps.
Data analytics software like tableau allow users to manipulate and interact with the data through
querying and examination. The project will be focused on mortality that has been cause by road
traffic accident. The analysis will be done on tableau to come up with a clear picture of this
phenomenon. Road traffic accidents is one of the leading cause of deaths across the world and
make up a high percentage of ill-health burden such as paralysis. From the data we found out that
the number of road accidents was much higher in developing countries as compared to developed
countries. This has been attributed to insufficient traffic infrastructure in such countries.
Additionally, accidents were more in urban areas as compared to rural areas. Data Visualization
enables the users to configure the software to automatically generate dashboards that can be used
to track traffic accidents across the globe and represent them visually. Many countries are now
implementing data visualization tools to monitor several government initiatives including traffic
incidences.
