Plot.ly Challenge - Belly Button Biodiversity
Where does the data come from?
The data is provided by Monash University Data Analytics Bootcamp.
What did I do?
In this assignment, I've built an interactive dashboard to explore the Belly Button Biodiversity dataset, which catalogs the microbes that colonize human navels.
The dataset reveals that a small handful of microbial species (also called operational taxonomic units, or OTUs, in the study) were present in more than 70% of people, while the rest were relatively rare.
-
Use the D3 library to read in
samples.json
. -
Create a horizontal bar chart with a dropdown menu to display the top 10 OTUs found in selected test ID.
-
Create a bubble chart that displays each sample.
-
Display the sample metadata, i.e., an individual's demographic information.
-
Create the Gauge Chart to plot the weekly washing frequency of the individual.
-
Update all of the plots any time that a new sample is selected.
-
Deploy the app to GitHub Pages.
