Data Story
The data used were the most recent traffic census XML data from Queensland data, analyzed in google earth for widespread visual representation, as well as the latest traffic census data in CSV format used to reference for more built-up areas to be identified and added (manually, for now). In the future, this could be improved by including real-time traffic data, however, the census provides excellent information for informed decision-making before booking and planning your stay. Another dataset was used containing the locations of the planned Olympic stadiums to identify the areas that are most likely to be particularly difficult to navigate during the events. Location data was gathered from general data searching to identify some real hotel locations near the identified arenas to give an example of where visitors hoping to stay and watch the games, graded in regards to how expensive the accommodation is to how nice the rooms are.
