Types of Data Analysis

Data can be split between quantitative and qualitative analysis.

Quantitative Analysis looks at numerical data which is used in a statistical approach.

Qualitative Analysis looks at non-numerical data which shows a more detailed data which gives a more in-depth outlook to the information processed.

Data Analysis Timeline

The Data Analysis timeline represents the stages of a process in which Data Analytics can be carried out:

Descriptive

This is the reporting stage for things that have already happened and gives the people involved an understanding of “What happened?”

Diagnostic

This is the analysis of the reports given from the descriptive stage this gives an understanding of “Why did it happen?” Root cause, corrective action should be drawn from here.

Live Data

Live data is actively analysed, so, if any problems were to arise it would allow for an almost immediate response to any new information that may arise.

Predictive

Here the analysis is looking towards the future with the aim of looking to find “What will happen?” Alogrithms need to be used based on previous trends & "Knowns"

Prescriptive

Finally, here the analysis is looks towards possible fixes or improvements using the data collected from previous events or put simply “What should I do?”

Detecting Diseases - Using previous patient data to spot symptoms early on

Energy sector

Customer insight – Allows for customers to understand their providers they are with or intend to join and can directly influence their desire to switch

Better operational performance – Improving performance and predicting failures which could cause distribution problems
