Final Project (Interactive Solutions)

Project Description:

Currently, the world is going through a crazy epidemic (COVID-19). I hope all is well and are being safe. There are numerous data available online about COVID-19, such as COVID new cases per state, fatalities per country. As a data scientist, you are in charge of building an interactive chart that depicts numerous angles (at least three).  

Activities:

1. Data Acquisition, Examination, and Transformation.

a. Collect the dataset you are planning to use within your project.

b. Data Examination 

i. Examine the dataset to determine how you want to create an interactivity design and briefly explain your Solution.

c. If needed, perform Data Transformation

i. Perform data transformation techniques such as data cleansing, conversion, creation, and consolidation on the dataset.

ii. Record the transformation activities you performed on your dataset.

2. Data Exploration

a. Decide how you want to present the data.  

b. Decide the tool you would like to create the interactive Solution. The tool could be a developer’s tool or non-developer’s tool.

c. If you are not familiar with the tool, complete a tutorial. The reference below includes links to different types of interactive tools and tutorials.

3. Interactive Solution

a. Design and develop an interactive solution.

b. Explain the challenge you encounter.

c. Explain how to avoid such occurrence when and if you decide to go live/production.

4. Proposed Dynamic Solution

a. Explain how you would modify your solutions that allow the data to change (dynamic) with a database continually.

1. Use the Form Wizard to create a Form based on the Clients table. Select all fields for the form, use the Columnar layout, and specify the title ClientContactInfo for the Form.
2. Display the Form in Layout view, and then apply the Organic theme to the ClientContactInfo Form only.
3. Switch to Form View, and use the Client Contact Info Form to update the Client’s table as follows:Use the Report Wizard to create a Report based on the primary ServiceAgreements table and the related Invoices table. Select all fields from the ServiceAgreements table, and select the InvNum, InvDate, InvAmt, and Paid fields from the Invoices table. Do not specify any additional grouping levels and sort the detail records by the Paid field in descending order. Choose the Outline layout and Landscape orientation. Specify the title InvoicesByAgreement for the report.
   1. Use the Find command to search for pony anywhere in the Company field to display the record for the Pony Grill (Client ID 21). Change the Street field value in this record to 8930 Saddle Brook Way.
   2. Add a new record with your first and last names in the First Name and Last Name fields.
