Data Analytics
We meticulously analyzed diverse datasets, including information on streams, water quality, emissions, spills, asbestos, mercury, lead, air quality, and utility maps. Utilizing GIS technology, we visualized spatial data and overlaid layers with contamination data to provide valuable insights into environmental risks and mitigation strategies. Our primary goal was to ensure that NIH/DEP remained compliant with EPA and Maryland environmental standards. Strategic Planning: Ark played a pivotal role in facilitating the development of mission statements, vision statements, objectives, and goals aligned with the agency's mission. By defining key performance indicators (KPIs) and developing a detailed roadmap for enhancing data management practices, we enabled NIH/DEP to achieve their strategic objectives effectively.

Data Normalization for Environmental Data at NIH/DEP:
In the NIH/DEP project, Ark employed rigorous data normalization techniques to ensure that environmental data, including air quality, asbestos levels, energy usage, water quality, and storage tank information, was effectively organized, standardized, and optimized for analysis. Alongside leveraging DAX queries within Power BI, Ark utilized a range of complementary techniques to enhance the management and analysis of diverse environmental datasets:
Data Cleaning: Ark initiated the data normalization process by thoroughly cleaning the environmental datasets to remove errors, inconsistencies, and outliers. Techniques such as outlier detection, missing value imputation, and error correction were applied to enhance data quality and integrity
Standardization: Standardization techniques were utilized to scale numerical features to a common range or distribution. By standardizing variables, Ark ensured that data with different scales or units could be compared and analyzed effectively, contributing to more accurate insights.
Normalization: Ark applied normalization techniques to adjust the values of numeric features to a common scale, typically between 0 and 1 or -1 and 1. Methods such as min-max normalization and z-score normalization were employed to prevent features with larger magnitudes from dominating the analysis and to ensure equal contribution from each feature
Feature Engineering: Feature engineering played a crucial role in enhancing the analysis of environmental data. Ark utilized techniques such as log transformations, polynomial features, and binning to derive meaningful insights and improve the performance of analytical tasks.
Dimensionality Reduction: To simplify analysis and reduce computational complexity, Ark employed dimensionality reduction techniques. Methods like principal component analysis (PCA) and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) were utilized to reduce the number of features while preserving important information.
Data Integration: Ark integrated environmental data from various sources and formats into a unified dataset. By combining data through techniques such as data merging, fusion, and aggregation, Ark ensured that all relevant information was included in the analysis, eliminating redundancies.
Data Transformation: Data transformation techniques were applied to alter the structure or representation of environmental data, making it more suitable for analysis. This included log transformations, square root transformations, and Box-Cox transformations to stabilize variance, reduce skewness, and meet statistical assumptions
By implementing these data normalization techniques in conjunction with DAX queries within Power BI, Ark successfully prepared environmental data for comprehensive analysis, enabling stakeholders at NIH/DEP to derive accurate insights and make informed decisions in support of environmental management and conservation efforts.
