This scatter map uses the scatter_mapbox to visualize the number of injuries from motor vehicle collisions across New York City’s boroughs. Each point on the map represents a location where the injuries occurred, with bubbles. The brightness and size of the bubble indicates the number of injured persons at that location. A bigger and brighter bubble indicates a higher injury count. By plotting the latitude and longitudes data, the map shows that Staten Island has the highest concentration of injuries per crash in this data set.
This map visualizes the geographic distribution of collisions across the five boroughs of New York City. The map highlights the crash locations, giving a quick identification of areas with higher concentration of crashes. From the map, we see that the area with the most concentration of crashes is Brooklyn which is one of the city’s busiest boroughs.
The bar chart shows a breakdown of injuries and fatalities caused by vehicle collisions in each borough. It includes data on pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers who are injured and killed. By stacking the different categories, we are able to compare the total number of people affected in each borough. From the graph, Brooklyn has the most number of injuries and deaths. However, Manhattan has the second highest number of injured pedestrians.
According to this pie chart, more collins occur at non-intersections. This suggests that a higher proportion of accidents happen away from intersections, possibly due to factors such as higher vehicle speeds, fewer traffic control measures, and potentially lower driver attention in non-intersection areas. While intersections are mostly high risk zones due to cross-traffic, the lower percentage here might reflect better regulation, or increased driver awareness in these zones.
