Examining San Francisco's Bus Data
http://dvncan.com/writing/2014/08/17/buses.html
Examining San Francisco's Bus Data. This past weekend I participated in the ASA Datathon. My team asked the question, ‘Does SF public transportation underserve those in low-income communities or without cars? We couldn’t find conclusive evidence, but we did draw some interesting conclusions. Below is the presentation we gave. Here’s the visualization we used heavily to explore the data. Want to get involved? And Here’s the data set on Mode. Oh also, we won! Thanks to all of the judges and organizers.
