📖 Task Introduction

To this point we've utilized a variety of tools within Contour to manipulate and manifest unique visualizations and analyses to better understand the flight delay conundrum facing our notional aviation company teammates. We are going to transition now to preparing this analysis in a Contour dashboard so we can share it with our colleagues.

🔨 Task Instructions

  1. Navigate to your flights path. Scroll to your Histogram board and click on the Add to dashboard button at the top of that board.

  2. The dashboard preview panel will appear on the left side of your screen. The box in the center of the card in this sidebar allows you to title this board within the dashboard. Title this board Routes Histogram.

  3. Click into the text box at the top of the dashboard preview, which says Untitled dashboard. Name the dashboard Flight Delay Dashboard.

  4. Navigate to your Delayed Route Analysis path via the tab at the top of the analysis.

  5. On the first Chart, the one showing average delays, click the Add to dashboard button. Title this board Average Delay by Route in the dashboard preview panel by typing this into the box in the center.

  6. Add the other Chart board from this path to the dashboard as well by clicking the Add to dashboard button. Title this board Departure Delay vs. Arrival Delay.

  7. Finally, rearrange your dashboard preview by clicking and dragging on the eight .... dots near the top-left corner of Departure Delay vs. Arrival Delay to move that card into the same line as Average Delay by Route.
