Dino Fun World Movement and Communication Data Jordan Riley Benson Riley.Benson@sas.com Rajiv Ramarajan Rajiv.Ramarajan@sas.com Nascif Abousalh-Neto Nascif.Abousalh-Neto@jmp.com We repurposed the path analysis feature in SAS Visual Analytics to find groups of visitors that traveled together throughout the day. Atmosfear Campgrounds Hotels Main Entrance Creighton Pavilion We identified the most likely attraction and entryway position for each check-in location by connecting the coordinates in the data via the shortest distance to any point on the edge of the nearby attraction polygons.

The goal was to create an easy to follow path similar to the goal of LineSets. Arrows convey direction and color was used to break up movement between check-ins. 40 20 0 Jun 8 11:00AM Jun 8 11:30 AM Jun 8 12:00 AM Jun 8 12:30 AM Jun 8 01:00 AM Viewing the results of clustering in parallel coordinates diagrams helped us describe different patterns of movement for park visitors.
