DATA

One thing I often struggled with, was the rigid nature of tools such as Power Bi and Excel. The streamline nature of the app makes it difficult to try tell stories in a more tailored and compelling way.

My main objective was to see if I could use the pixels to provide evidence to assert with a level of certainty that the image contains specific qualities.

Continuing from Part 1, we have collected the data but now we face another issue. Power BI does not like trying to process such a large .csv so we will need to take another approach. We will need a sample, however there are methods, all with their ups and downs.

The sigma DP2M camera has a proprietary image format called X3f, which captures a red, blue, and green pixel on separate layers. If we converted the image into a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file, could we piece together anything meaningful?
