Pollination Project

Visualization Summary

This dashboard explores pollinator behavior depending on crops and other variables. Variables include:

  • Honeybee: This represents the of honeybee visits per sample
  • Other Diptera: Hover flies, Fruit Flies, and even Crane Flies
  • Bombus: Several species summarized into one variable
  • Wind Speed: This variable is a measurement of the average wind speed during sampling
  • Crops: Beans (Faba), Oil Seed Rape, and Apples
  • Date: The study took place over a 4-5 month period

Data & Study Summary

This data set includes pollinator observations from 3 crops across multiple sampling locations and dates. It captures flower density, temperature, wind, and a breakdown of insect types observed. The following visualizations will analyze pollinator species, crop type, and wind speeds.


Vis. 1: Honeybee Visits per Crop

Vis. 2: Other Diptera Over Time

Vis. 3: Wind Speed vs Pollinator Visits

Vis. 4: Temperature vs Pollinator Visits
