James Lomotey

1. Which dataset did you use?

U.S. Chronic Disease Indicators dataset via Data.gov

2. How did you analyze or prepare the data?

I used Explain, Auto-Insights

3. Who is the intended audience for your visualization?

Public health policymakers and CDC analysts.

4. What is your visualization about, and what question or problem does it address?

"America's Silent Epidemic" is a three-canvas dashboard exploring U.S. chronic disease patterns across all states. It maps where disease hits hardest, exposes who bears the greatest burden, and forecasts what comes next — so policymakers can prioritize intervention.

5. Did you use any Oracle Analytics AI features when building your visualization (ex. AI Assistant)? If so, please describe how they were used.

I used Explain to get automated insights on key columns.

6. Did you upload your visualization image and dva file?

Completed the image upload.

This is a thoughtfully crafted and very well-designed dashboard.

The geographic map paired with clear risk and category breakdowns makes complex data easy to understand, and the narrative summary nicely reinforces the key insights.

Great Work & Thanks for sharing, @James Lomotey!

Great graphic, but I'd suggest a better choice of colors to represent the Risk Categories in the Disease Burden. I am not color blind, but have a hard time telling the difference between Critical and Moderate. Model State and High Risk are just different shades of green but represent opposite sides of the spectrum. Usually we represent green as the positive color and red as the negative.
