商业智能报告代写 This assignment is designed to broaden your understanding of BI tools and further develop your analytical skills.
Introduction
Workshop sessions in this unit will provide you with an introduction to data analysis and the production of visualisations with the help of Microsoft Power BI. This assignment is designed to broaden your understanding of BI tools and further develop your analytical skills. This assignment also explores a practice-based approach to assess the capabilities, and more importantly, limitations of BI tools.
There are two scenarios with two sets of data provided. Please select ONLY ONE scenario and its related dataset as described below. You will analyse the dataset that you selected, design a BI dashboard for management use, and make a series of recommendations based on your analysis.
Scenario 1 商业智能报告代写
Climate change in Australia has been a critical issue and represents a significant challenge to individuals, communities, businesses and the environment. ‘Protect Climate’ is a non-profit community organisation focused on advocacy and social research into climate change. ‘Protect Climate’ is interested in historical weather data to understand climate change projections for Australian weather stations. Your organisation is a business intelligence consulting firm that has been contracted to advise ‘Protect Climate’ on climate change trends and rain patterns. The Program Manager has provided you with a dataset (i.e. Weather AUS) consisting of about 10 years (from 2008 to 2017) of daily weather observations from numerous Australian weather stations to perform data analytics.
Scenario 2 商业智能报告代写
The Coronavirus outbreak is a global pandemic. It has been spreading rapidly across the world, affecting more than 180 countries and claiming more than 13,000 lives. HealthFirst is a volunteering organisation on a mission to support health and disease control in vulnerable communities in Australia and internationally. They have provided you with the dataset (Covid-19) and requested that you perform a data analytics task and produce a report on Covid-19 spread across the world. The dataset (Covid-19) contains the cumulative count of confirmed, fatal and recovered cases of Covid-19 from different countries.
