Narrative
Research
In order to gain the most accurate insights, the Pedestrian and Cyclist data is cleaned using python and pandas. Next, Talbeau is used to efficiently visualize and explore the large dataset. Once those insights are made, the application can be designed around the story that is told through the data.
Establish
The user is immediately presented with a call to action. "The accident numbers are too high. Toronto, it's time to make way for commuters."
Build
Problematic accident prone streets are brought attention to where infrastructure is lacking.
Resolve
The city requires more secure crosswalks and bike lanes through continued infrastructure development.
