Data Sources (Prepare Phase) -FitBit Fitness Tracker Data
Primary Source: Fitbit Fitness Tracker dataset (public domain), including minute-level activity, sleep, and heart rate data from 30 users.
- The data was stored in CSV files and imported using BigQuery, SQL and R Studio for analysis.
- Data bias and credibility were reviewed, with consideration of sample size and public source limitations.
- Errors and missing values were identified and cleaned using BigQuery, SQL filtering, spreadsheet inspection, and R scripts for outlier removal.
- Date fields were unified, and datasets were merged where appropriate.
- Data was aggregated from minute-level to daily summaries using SQL
GROUP BYand R’sdplyrfor analysis readiness. - All cleaning steps were documented to ensure reproducibility.
-
- Explored patterns in daily steps, active minutes, sedentary time, and sleep hours.
- Correlated activity intensity with sleep quality, showing that users with more active minutes tended to sleep longer and better.
- Noted dips in weekly activity on weekends and identified key time frames when users were most engaged.
