Developing Replicable and Reusable Data Analytics Projects

This page provides an example process of how to develop data analytics projects so that the analytics methods and processes developed can be easily replicated or reused for other datasets and (as a starting point) in different contexts. All tables, plots, visualizations in the report and slides of the case can automatically be replaced with the same ones using one's own data, leading to new, customized reports and slides.

To download, replicate, reuse, or modify any of the examples below, please click on the title of the study and follow the instructions in the case's README file on github. You can pull the case's raw content on a local computer by creating a new project in your Rstudio using version control and the github URL address of the study.

Case Specific Customized Web Application Tool

To faciliate reuse some cases can be accompanied with a web application tool (e.g. the the S&P500 Case tool below) developed and customised for the specific case. The tool menus "follow the flow of the case report and slides". These applications can also be used on a local computer after pulling the raw files of the case from its github repository.

How to develop Replicable and Reusable Analytics Projects

As in the examples below, please crate a project on GitHub with the same GitHub structure as the projects below. Details are provided in the Analytics Case Structure page. Please contact us for more information.
