The Challenge

Automotive industry professionals struggle to gain actionable insights from complex historical sales data. Manual analysis is time-consuming and may miss important trends.

The Solution

Created a comprehensive analytics solution combining an interactive Dash dashboard and Jupyter notebook for in-depth sales analysis. The platform enables data-driven decision making by visualizing key trends and patterns in automobile sales data.

Tech Mastery Showcase

Python

Core language for data processing and dashboard development.

Dash

Used for building interactive web dashboard with rich visualizations.

Pandas

Employed for data manipulation and analysis.

Matplotlib

Created static visualizations and plots for analysis.

Seaborn

Enhanced statistical visualizations and plots.

Jupyter

Platform for exploratory data analysis and documentation.

Innovative Logic & Implementation

Dashboard Development

Built interactive web dashboard using Dash with multiple analysis modes.

1import dash
2 from dash import dcc, html
3 import plotly.express as px
4 
5 app = dash.Dash(__name__)
6 
7 app.layout = html.Div([
8    dcc.Tabs([
9        dcc.Tab(label='Yearly Statistics', children=[
10            dcc.Graph(id='yearly-sales'),
11            dcc.Graph(id='vehicle-type-dist')
12        ]),
13        dcc.Tab(label='Recession Analysis', children=[
14            dcc.Graph(id='recession-impact'),
15            dcc.Graph(id='advertising-effect')
16        ])
17    ])
18 ])

Data Analysis Pipeline

Implemented comprehensive data analysis workflow in Jupyter.

1import pandas as pd
2 import seaborn as sns
3 import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
4 
5 # Load and process data
6 df = pd.read_csv('automobile_sales.csv')
7 
8 # Create visualizations
9 plt.figure(figsize=(12,6))
10 sns.lineplot(data=df, x='Year', y='Sales')
11 sns.scatterplot(data=df, x='Advertising', y='Sales')
12 
13 # Statistical analysis
14 correlation = df['Sales'].corr(df['Advertising'])
15 recession_impact = df.groupby('Recession')['Sales'].mean()
