- Answer
- I selected a data set regarding NYPD Motor Vehicle Accidents, which included dates, times, boroughs, longitudes, latitudes, zip codes, and locations, because I felt that it would be interesting to see if there was more of a pattern from certain areas or at certain times. I had to filter the data to only include one day of data in order to stay within Google Sheets' limitations, but it still exceeded the 1000 value criteria.
