New York City has nearly one million buildings, and each year, more than 3000 of them experience a major fire. The Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY) is adding BI analytics to its arsenal of firefighting equipment. It has created a database of over 60 different factors (e.g., building location, age of the building, whether it has electrical issues, the number and location of sprinklers) in an attempt to determine which buildings are more likely to have a fire than others. The values of these parameters for each building are fed into a BI analytics system that assigns each of the city's 330,000 inspectable buildings a risk score. (FDNY doesn't inspect single and two-family homes.) Building inspectors then use these risk scores to prioritize which buildings to visit on their weekly inspections. The FDNY has roughly 350 inspectors who are trained and certified to perform their duties.Which set of three parameters all provide measures…arrow_forward

Mac employs several carpenters and paintersto do the work for him. It is essential for him to have accurate cost estimates so he can determinetotal renovation costs before he purchases a piece of property. If estimated renovation costs plus thepurchase price of a house are higher than the house’s estimated resale value, it is not a worthwhileinvestment.Mac has been using the home’s interior square feet for his exterior paint cost estimations. Recentlyhe decided to include the number of external openings—the total number of doors and windows ina house—as a cost driver.
