MPCS 53017: Revised project proposal

Revised project proposal

You will need to designate one of your phoenixforge repositories as the primary one. Please, email the instructor, as soon as possible, your choice along with the usernames of all team members so we can adjust the repository access permissions. Everyone in your team will be able to commit to the designated repository.

Your revised proposal should discuss several new issues as well as the same points as your draft proposal addressing any comments and questions raised in the feedback provided on your draft submission.

• Project name

• An overview of the proposed project.

• What are the key question(s) that you would like to answer by building the proposed data warehouse? Please, be as specific as possible, and list up to 10 questions. For example, analyzing crime in Chicago is too general while exploring the relationship between weather patterns such as precipitation, temperature, wind, etc and crime is right on point.

• Who would be interested in the answers to the questions above? You can list organizations, companies, type of consumers, etc. For example, both the Chicago police department and the people who live and work in Chicago would be interested in knowing the relationships between weather and crime in the city.

• What executives and analysts would you like to interview in order to refine your key questions? For example, you may want to interview both the CEO of Netflix and their analysts if your project aims to help Netflix provide better service for its customers.

• What are the data sources that you would like to use? Please, be as exhaustive as possible bur prioritize the data sources since you will likely end up using only a few of your top choices. Please, include specific datasets such as City of Chicago: Crimes - 2001 to present.

• For each data source, list some details such as whether it is available via API or as a flat file, size in terms of number of tuples and disk volume, and any limitations. For example, the crime dataset contains 5M+ records, is about 1.7GB and can be downloaded as csv file and also available via API.

You will submit your proposal via phoenixforge. Please, create a new subdirectory named reports in your designated repository and add your revised proposal in this subdirectory. Of course, don't forget to commit the directory and the proposal.
