VISUALIZING the CLASSIFICATIONS
A problem I came across while preparing my presentation was verbally explaining the classifications I created for the different control groups in my research. As seen on the right (and on slide 8 in the presentation slides above), I created symbols for each of the 4 categories of tornado groups that I compared. Though this still takes a little bit of explaining (which can be found in the presentation recording above), this creative and simple visualization is more intuitive and efficiently understood.
