Visualizing the Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Dataset by Siva Mohan and Curran Kelleher

Outline Understanding the Dataset Data Preparation Visualizations Issues

Understanding the Dataset as dimensions and measures Raw data at ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cew/ ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cew/ Covers Time from 1990 to 2007 Data for years, quarters, and months Covers Space for all US States Data for States and Counties Covers the NAICS Industry hierarchy Covers Ownership Government (Federal, State, Local) and Private Contains measures employment, annual pay, total wages, and number of establishments (among others)

NAICS North American Industry Classification System 11 Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting 111 Crop Production 1111 Oilseed and Grain Farming Soybean Farming Soybean Farming Oilseed (except Soybean) Farming Oilseed (except Soybean) Farming Dry Pea and Bean Farming Dry Pea and Bean Farming Wheat Farming Wheat Farming Corn Farming Corn Farming Rice Farming Rice Farming Other Grain Farming Oilseed and Grain Combination Farming All Other Grain Farming 1112 Vegetable and Melon Farming Vegetable and Melon Farming Potato Farming Other Vegetable (except Potato) and Melon Farming 1113 Fruit and Tree Nut Farming Orange Groves Orange Groves...

Data Preprocessing We wrote shell scripts to Download all raw data files via FTP Parse the raw data files (BLS fixed width format) Import the raw data files into a MySQL database We manually imported tables mapping BLS “Area Code” → state name BLS “Area Code” → state abbreviation  Necessary for using Tableau's map feature NAICS code → industry name BLS Ownership code → ownership name

Visualizations

Issues No support for hierarchical data cubes With this we could have seen the whole dataset County data too large for Tableau (1 min per vis) Hierarchical time was (seemingly) impossible Years in different tables, months in different columns Tableau expects each dimension as a single column We did not document as we went, had to backtrack “Cancel” query in Tableau didn't stop queries Overlapping labels occurred often (seemingly) impossible to probe with many dimensions
