Gauge visualizations in Kibana provide an easy to read and understand readout of your data. What’s more is that they can be used to not only demonstrate the value of something, but relate that value on an overall scale. In this hands-on lab, you will create gauge visualizations to display instantaneous metric readouts.
Learning Objectives
Successfully complete this lab by achieving the following learning objectives:
- Create and Save the Total Flights Visualization
- Create a new gauge visualization.
- Calculate the total number of flights and label it as "Flights".
- Create 5 ranges at 100 point intervals (0-100, 100-200, 200-300, 300-400, 400-500).
- Color the gauge with the "Blues" schema.
- Save the visualization as "Total Flights".
- Create and Save the Average Ticket Price Visualization
- Create a new gauge visualization.
- Calculate the average of
AvgTicketPrice, label it as "Ticket Price", and display it as a dollar amount with 2 decimal places (example: 1,234.567 as $1,234.56). - Create 4 ranges at 500 point intervals (0-500, 500-1000, 1000-1500, 1500-2000).
- Color the gauge with the "Green to Red" schema.
- Save the visualization as "Average Ticket Price".
- Create and Save the Delayed Flights Visualization
- Create a new gauge visualization.
- Add a filter to only show documents where
FlightDelayistrue. - Calculate the total number of flights and label it as "Delayed Flights".
- Split the buckets on the top 3 of
carrierordered by the number of delayed flights in descending order and labelled as Carrier. - Create 5 ranges at 10 point intervals (0-10, 10-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50).
- Color the gauge with the "Yellow to Red" schema.
- Save the visualization as "Delayed Flights".
