Data Analytics and the Deryn Dashboard

Data analytics is the science of extracting patterns, trends, and actionable information from large sets of data. In the Birdhouse, you can access a huge array of interesting graphs and infographics on a variety of topic areas. At Deryn we know that Data can tell a powerful story, to show the way things are, have been and potentially the way they will be.

We use our skills at graphic design and data manipulation through Infogram to show a variety of information in an interesting, accessible and interactive way. From the Welsh Government Budget to the amount of waste recycled in Wales, the Birdhouse has data for you on just about anything.

By using concrete sets of Data, you can gain valuable insight into the state of a given area in Wales. This information will help drive your decision making, and provide a good insight into the reality of the sector. If the data is reliable enough, a good interpretation of that data, combined with an understanding of current affairs, can allow you to make predictions as to what is likely in the future, allowing you to make the most informed decisions possible.

On the Deryn Dashboard you can see our showcase of electoral graphs, from voting patterns and poll predictions and both the current and historical makeup of the Welsh Assembly to the gender makeup of local councils. It’s the best resource for election related data in Wales.
