RFC Infographic Report

[felix-yew]

Problem

Making an Infographic report for each Impact Function and Exposure Data type. The infographic has unique characters in every IF because every IF has a different result. An infographic report style is an innovative reporting style that represents information (InaSAFE results) as graphics.

Duration

until InaSAFE version 4.0 release

Proposers

@felix-yew with input from: @Charlotte-Morgan @timlinux @lrpower

Proposal

General report

Standard report order:

• Logo and title
• Simple map and XY location
• Exposure affected (analysis result in graphs)
• Total affected & not affected graphs (used in a few IF)
• Detail of exposure
• Detail of minimum needs
• Action checklist
• Marginalia

This standard report order varies in every impact function.

Content

A. Logo and title

Logo used InaSAFE in black color This logo will put in a left in an infographic's title. <InaSAFE logo> | <Title>

Capitalise first letter only. The title is adjusted from IF analysis, so just add “Infographic” to the beginning of infographic title, the syntax will be like this : <Infographic> <exposure> <affected by> <type of hazard> <event/hazard>

And for generic hazard : <Infographic> <exposure> <affected>

Based on our discussions in using event/hazard it depends on the type of disaster scenario. An event used for single scenario and Hazard used for multiple scenarios. For example : Infographic people affected by tsunami event Infographic buildings affected by flood hazard Infographic roads affected by flood event Infographic landcover affected by volcanic event Infographic people affected (generic hazard)

B. Small map and XY location

1. The infographics will be presented in 2 columns. The content in every infographic will be dynamic adjusting with the impact function. The simple map and XY location will appear in the top left corner.
2. Using a simple map to show an administration and impact analysis result. <Simple map with administrative boundary and impact analysis>
3. Coordinates of XY location is easy if the location is a point shape, like a volcano (eruption). If the hazard area is a polygon shape, like a flood, earthquake, tsunami, volcanic ash, it’s better to convert to a centroid/point too. Location name is about the name place if it is the eruption of a volcano so the name is Volcano Mount, if it is the hazard in certain areas so the name in Administrative, i.e. in Province/District/Subdistrict/Village. <location symbol> <location name> <XY location> Adjust the projection: if use geographic (WGS) use the decimal degree, i.e. 3.711 S, 127.937 E If use UTM, uses the use the metric unit, i.e. 9597973.868 Nm (North meter), 400549.358 Em (East meter)
4. After represent the simple map and coordinate of location. We use the analysis report from every impact function (IF) to create an infographic.

   Infographic element in each of impact function

   C. Exposure affected

   1. For population IF:

The result depends if the data is raster and vector, so for the infographic report of population data in analysis result in raster based will be represented as doughnut chart. Tsunami IF, earthquake vector IF, volcano raster classified IF, volcanic ash vector IF, generic IF. If we use the latest InaSAFE, the chart will be like this: For raster hazard

Flood IF (Tsunami on population IF, coming soon)

Earthquake raster IF

Volcanic ash raster IF

For representing a specific total of the population will need rounding, i.e. 1 man object represent 1.000 people. Or, by using a single person symbol to represent of people.

The detail of analysis will create a graphic to compare the affected and the unaffected. Vulnerability groups are an infant, elder, woman, and pregnant and lactating women.

Creating an infographic report for analysis of vector format will be similar with raster format but there are differences with the hazard impact classes and comparison of the affected and unaffected people. This graphic will represent the affected area compare with total normal area, too. Vector hazard

The area affected (Hectare). (From the report table from IF population in InaSAFE, (optional) it can add/not in IF population’s infographic)

Aggregation

If the analysis adds an aggregation data, we can use the stacked chart.

Minimum needs

Other details are minimum needs, a reference to the existing regulation (Perka BNPB No. 7/ 2008).

Action checklist

Action checklist can also be added to support the input information, especially for the decision maker, in order to take an action and strategy in emergency response or preparedness.

2. For roads IF:

This impact function will create graphics that compare roads affected (temporarily closed) and unaffected. And then create a graphics to represent every type of roads.

The detail per impact classes

Detail of roads

The detail of roads will be represented in stacked chart by impact classes. Unit in metres

Aggregation

If the analysis adds an aggregation data, we can use the stacked chart.

Action checklist

Action checklist will be added in this part.

3. For structure IF:

This impact function will create graphics to compare buildings affected (wet and dry) and unaffected. And then create a graphic to represent every type of building.

For the detail in each impact classes:

Detail of buildings

For the detail of buildings type:

Aggregation

If the analysis adds an aggregation data, we can use the stacked chart.

Action checklist

Action checklist will be added in this part.

4. For land cover IF:

To create an infographic from analysis result of land cover with bar graph. If the impact function use an aggregation, it can create a graph of land cover detailed in every admin area affected. The no aggregation data’s graph just represent the type of land cover in every hazard classes impacted. Vector hazard

Raster hazard

Detail of land cover

The detail of land cover will use the stacked chart.

Aggregation

If the analysis adds an aggregation data, we can use the stacked chart.

Action checklist

Action checklist will be added in this part. (For now, the action checklist is not available)

5. For location IF:

This new impact function can analysis a population and critical object (like an airport) by a point in volcanic ash IF. Create an infographic from an analysis result of location with doughnut graph or bar graph. Then add the detail of total and location of type.

Detail of places

The detail of classes

Action checklist

Action checklist will be added in this part. (For now, the action checklist is not available)

D. Marginalia

• Time of analysis.
• Data used: hazard, exposure, and aggregation/no aggregation.
• InaSAFE version.
• Note and disclaimer*) about the data used and analysis report.
• Logos: BNPB, Australian Aid, GFDRR.

Marginalia example : 2016-09-05 : 11:11:53 | Hazard of Sinabung Ash Vector | Exposure of People | Aggregation of Karo Subdistrict | InaSAFE 3.6 analysis Note : This assessment is a guide - we strongly recommend that you ground truth the results shown here before deploying resources and / or personnel. *)Disclaimer: InaSAFE has been jointly developed by the Indonesian Government-BNPB, the Australian Government, the World Bank-GFDRR and independent contributors.

Wow, this looks really nice & comprehensive @felix-yew - good job! I think the next thing for us to do is to create small helper functions to show that we can programmatically generate each of the chart types. I don't see anything there that looks too hard, but it will be good to break them down into the different subtypes and prototype them as a next step.

[ismailsunni]

Wow... It's very beautiful.

Hi all,

Thank you for your attention, this is my example of infographic's original sketch to the infographic report in A4 portrait paper :

There are 7 points in the picture that refer to the RFC.

1. About logo and title refer to the A. Logo and title
2. About location and 'small' map refer to the B. Small map and XY location
3. Exposure affected refer to the C. Exposure affected that might be different in each impact function, sometimes use an icon and sometimes use a chart
4. Detail of exposure refer to the sub point of exposure affected, there is the detail of roads, buildings, land cover, and places.
5. Aggregation refers to the sub point of exposure affected when to use aggregation data that using in analysis
6. Action checklist refers to the sub point of exposure affected when to use it on each impact function
7. Marginalia refers to D. Marginalia that including the time of analysis, data used, InaSAFE version, note, disclaimer, and supporting logos: BNPB, Australian Aid, GFDRR.

Hope it can help to imagine and realise the infographic reporting standard.

Thank you.

I need to find some helper library to generate the charts.

Nice list!

Hi @felix-yew - this is very comprehensive. In terms of testing and demonstrating new functionality for version 4.0 beta, I recommend we keep it simple and focus on one example of an infographic report - as discussed: the priority is for a population report for minimum needs. I suggest you write a new ticket "We need an infographic report for Population Minimum Needs" and cross reference to this RFC and #3360

[felix-yew]

Hi, @Charlotte-Morgan - thank you for the feedback, I will draft first about it.

[Charlotte-Morgan]

hi @lucernae - please see #3472 with the action for you to follow up on this ready for 4.0beta
