Visualizing storage locations and market distribution across the UK

The Case Study

A company that provides Storage Services all over the United Kingdom wanted an analysis of their locations in the country. As a BI Consultant, I was tasked with creating a Geo-Location Dashboard for stakeholders.

The project requirements included:

  • Visualize storage locations on a map
  • Replace UK area codes with the corresponding area or city names for better understanding
  • Display total listings per location with the percentage of total listings
  • Provide breakdowns for location and storage type, and storage type alone

Dataset Overview and Structure

The dataset provided for analysis contained the following columns:

  • Storage Type: Various types of storage options, including garages, loft/attic spaces, and spare rooms, among others
  • UK Area: Specific regions within the UK where storage listings are located
  • Number: The number of listings available for each combination of storage type and area

The data was provided in a Comma Separated Values (.csv) file format, containing a table with these three columns.
