Augmenting the data: Route summary statistics
We have constructed a dataset that is nearly ready for visualization, route_hod
. Let's add in a few more variables that will be useful as cognostics as we anticipate interactively viewing the display.
Cet exercice fait partie du cours
Visualizing Big Data with Trelliscope in R
Instructions
- For each route, calculate the total number of rides.
- For each route, calculate the difference between the mean hourly rides during the work week and the mean hourly rides during the weekend. Note that the variable
n
already is aggregated to counts per hour, so, for example, the workweek mean is calculated withmean(n[weekday == "workweek"])
. - For each route, add a variable containing a URL pointing to the route on Google Maps, using the provided
make_gmap_url
function, providing appropriate arguments from the data.
