Synopsis
Data Processing
Data is in comma separeated CSV file, file can be download from this link, the file is compressed in bzip2 format, uncompress before read into R.
loading data
dat<-read.csv("repdata%2Fdata%2FStormData.csv", stringsAsFactors = F)
# summarize by year
dat$date<-strptime(dat$BGN_DATE, "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S")
dat$year<-dat$date$year+1900
dat$date<-as.character(dat$date) # this column will not be use again actually
total_Obj<-dim(dat)[1]
quantile(dat$year)## 0% 25% 50% 75% 100%
## 1950 1995 2002 2007 2011# remove lower 25%
dat<-dat[dat$year>=1995,]
total_obj<-dim(dat)[1]National Weather Service indicates the data is collected since 1950, until 2011, there are 902297 events in data set, however, most data are collected after year 2002, we will skip lower 25% of data in favor of complete yearly observation. The subset of data is 681500 events, from 1995 until 2011.
Damaged properties and crop values
dataset has 2 column for each damage type, one column store the number, another column store exponent, like “m” for million, “H” for handred. we first need to convert the exponent to number.
PROPDMGEXP and CROPDMGEXP explaination
How To Handle Exponent Value of PROPDMGEXP and CROPDMGEXP guide has comperhansive study of how to handle each exponent, below is descipition
H,h,K,k,M,m,B,b,+,-,?,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and blank-character
H,h = hundreds = 100
K,k = kilos = thousands = 1,000
M,m = millions = 1,000,000
B,b = billions = 1,000,000,000
(+) = 1
(-) = 0
(?) = 0
black/empty character = 0
numeric 0..8 = 10
conclusion for all numeric, exp 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, they are multiplier of 10.
convert exponent
we will create a function take exponent charactor and create multiplication factor, use this factor multiply with damage value.
# function take two vector and multiply
expval<-function(v,e) {
if ( length(v) != length(e)) {
message("2 vectors not at same length")
return()
}
# the order doesnt matter, all gsub will run anyway,
# only order matters is number be first, so that 10 will not be replace again
e <- sub("^[0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8]$", "10", e)
e <- sub("^$", "0", e)
e <- sub("^[-|?]$", "0", e)
e <- sub("^\\+$", "1", e)
e <- sub("^[h|H]$", "100", e)
e <- sub("^[k|K]$", "1000", e)
e <- sub("^[m|M]$", "1000000", e)
e <- sub("^[b|B]$", "1000000000", e)
e <- as.numeric(e)
return (v * e)
}we will create two new column for dataset, propval for property damange value, cropval fro crop damage value
# calculate property and crop danmage
dat$propval <- expval(dat$PROPDMG, dat$PROPDMGEXP)
dat$cropval <- expval(dat$CROPDMG, dat$CROPDMGEXP)Event types
the detail description of dataset can be found in National Weather Service Storm Data Documentation. extract “Storm Data Event” and save to text file.
evtcat <- read.csv("evtcat.txt", header = F)
eventcat<-sort(toupper((evtcat[,1])))
rm(evtcat)According to 2.1.1 Storm Data Event Table, there are 48 types of event, but there are 799 event names reported. In order to produce meaningful result, we first need to clean up the event name of each event. The plan as following
first, supporting functions
# function that match orignal event name with pattern, if found assign offical name to event_type column
# ep is vector of patterns that will apply to orignal names
# ec is vector of list of offical names, pair will patterns
match_event <- function(ep,em) {
for ( i in 1:length(ep)) {
#print(paste("replacing ",ep[i],"with",em[i], sep = " "))
events[grep(ep[i],events$evtype),] %<>% mutate(event_type = em[i])
events<<-events
}
}- create a events data frame by copy EVTYPE from data set, do simple clean up, convert to upper case, remove surrounding spaces.
events had 3 columns, first column is orignal name copied from dataset,
second is event name that is manipulated after matched with patterns, third column is offical event name.
The third column “event_cat” start with all NA.
# subset event from dataset
evts<-toupper(trimws(as.vector(dat$EVTYPE)))
events<-cbind(evts, evts,rep(NA,length(evts)))
colnames(events)<-c("evtype","event_type","event_cat")
events<-tbl_df(events)
rm(evts)- Create two vectors, one is pattern that will search orignals names, another is offical name that is the name of matching event. we can start with empty vector but will start from with THUNDERSTORM for demostrattion.
event_patterns <- c("^TSTM$")
event_matches <- c("THUNDERSTORM")- call match function on each event pattern and event match pair
match_event(event_patterns, event_matches)- assign name of event_cat if the matches offical name. we can directly change event_type column, but have additional result column will be easier to produce comparsion report used during clean up.
# assign offical name if cleaned up event_name is offical name
for ( e in eventcat) {
events[events$event_type==e, "event_cat"]<-e
}- filter rows which office name is unassigned(NA), sort those rows by number, create new pattern for top event and matching offical event name to event_patterns and event_matches, run step 4 and 5, after run step 4 and 5, this step will should smaller unassigned.
repeat step 4 to 6, until top unassigned event is insignificate.

Note the landside cause total 38 death, which is high but there’s no catelog to match to, landside could cause by rain or snow, we leave it as is.
At this point, we are ready to process data.
summarize data, sorting the top events.
take orignal dataset, group by offical event names, in each group, summarize the number of fatality/injuries, for damage type event, summarize the value, then sort the result, lastly pick top 20 result. the reason I pick 20 is to keep “other” low enough.
create a total count/value for later percentage calculation.
find the events that are outside of top 20, assign the event name as “OTHER”, their value is either number of occurence, or sum of value for damage type.
add the row of others to result data frame
create data frame for treemap display, the lable is combination of event name and percentage.

Each state have different top event, we will create top most event in terms of casuing fatality, injures, perproty damage, and crop damage.
get list of state code and state name, for user friendly display
group dataset into state_name, event_cat, in that order, summarize either by count of value, arrange result n=in descending order, filter by state_name, reduce value to million if necessary.
merge four data frame to one.
assign column names with clear meaning

)Result
The most harmful to population health.
Natural events that cause most fatality and injures are considered most harmful, in United States excesive heat caused most fatality.
