Data analytics technology has become an integral part of organizational management. This is a topic that MQ Shabbir addressed in a study that was published in Springer Open last year. There are a lot of different ways that big data can help companies streamline certain processes and resolve various challenges that they face. The advent of data visualization has made it easier than ever.

Based on five years of data from EPA models, ProPublica mapped areas in the United States where cancer risk is higher due to air pollution : In all, ProPublica identified more than a thousand hot spots of cancer-causing air. They are not equally distributed across the country. A quarter of the 20 hot spots with the highest levels of excess risk are in Texas, and almost all of them are in Southern states known for having weaker environmental regulations.
