Today is the 2nd day of dashboard and the topic is crime data. We can select the topic from Crime and Justice data from ABS and the topic I choose is Crime Victimisation. From this data, the analysis aspect is just for the household crime in 2021-2022 which is the most recent time range.
The data processing work is all done in Power BI. The data is clean and tidy, which I think Power Query is enough for that. The function I use for the first time is “Merge Query” and “Append Query”. With “Merge Query”, I can merge two table with same category columns but different numeric columns. With “Append Query”, I can append data from different crime type with same data structure into the same table.
After I got all these data, I started to explore the data and find insight. I think the most interesting part for me is the answers from people encountered different crime that if you would tell police when crime happened and why you won’t tell them.
I have published my dashboard to novypro and welcome to have a look and comment.
